Having limited floor space for your machines should not mean that you limit your productivity! Small parts production on a traditional compact vertical machining center requires compromises. Limited milling capabilities, poor spindle utilization and poor chip management erode your efficiencies and profit...

While that older, paid-for machine tool on your shop floor may look like a cash-cow – what are the true costs associated with continuing to operate outdated technology? Advancements in machine technologies have significantly increased productivity and efficiency. Learn how new machines with new...

To be competitive today, manufacturers must leverage the most advanced technology while keeping a pulse on maximizing long-term reliability, accuracy, and ROI. With many low-cost solutions available, it’s important to calculate a machine’s true ROI before making a purchase. While low-cost...

Host: Paul Meredith – Metrology Support Team Leader   On-machine measurement systems can reduce machine tool setup time, prevent a spindle crash, and optimize tool settings. But not all shops know the secrets to maximizing the benefits of on-machine measurement.  In fact, a growing...

The V77 Graphite features a low-vibration, high-speed No. 40 spindle and Makino’s proprietary GI.5 control to deliver high-accuracy, high-speed machining.

With the largest x axis in the series, the MCD2516-5XB features multi-face indexing of large workpieces and simultaneous 5-axis control for high speeds and high accuracy. The Makino Thermal Stabilizer and Thermal Chamber deliver higher accuracy and longer hours of continuous, high-quality machining.

The large stroke T4 5-Axis horizontal machining center combines a standard HSK-A125 interface, 1500 N-m spindle with Active Dampening and Thermal Stabilizer systems to achieve high metal removal rates with outstanding tool life and process stability.

Growing demands for machining of hardened materials, requiring exceptional submicron surface finishes will be reviewed in this webinar. See how progressive stamping dies, PCD tooling, motor cores and LED dies and molds can be machined faster, and with 0.2 Rz surface finishes utilizing new oil-based dielectric...

Learn how Makino has combined all the benefits of 2+3 machining for large mold manufacturing into one platform utilizing VG Technology. Rough, finish and angle machining all combined to eliminate the need for supporting equipment while reducing mold try-out time.
