a61nx Horizontal Machining Center. The a61nx is a 500mm, 40-taper production horizontal machining center. The a51nx and a61nx share key machine technologies that take part productivity, accuracy and machine reliability to the next level.  Robust casting design and large roller-type linear guides...

The smaller of the VS Series (5-Axis) machines, the V80S will handle workpieces up to 59” X, 47.24” Y & 21.65” Z and up to 5,512 pounds.Configured with a 20,000 rpm, HSK-A63 spindle, the machine is targeted for high-speed semi-finishing and finishing of large die and mold parts.

There is no magic formula for discovering the optimum number of parts that can be placed on your fixture, though a few general rules apply. In essence, the optimum configuration point is a cross between the cycle time of a part and the number of parts per fixture. One must also consider that different...

Machining Those Other Titanium Alloys There are many different titanium alloys other than Ti 6Al-4V – each with significant variants in chemical structure and characteristics. When you’re working with any of these, it’s essential to know not only their thermal conductivity but...

With a larger X-axis and pallet than the Makino MAG3, the MAG3.EX 5-axis is specifically designed for high-productivity machining of complex aluminum monolithic parts for aerospace parts manufacturing.The Makino MAG3.EX 5-axis Horizontal Machining Center can be integrated with an automatic pallet transfer...

With larger X and Y travels and pallet size compared to the MAG3 series machines, the Makino MAG4 provides 5-sided accessibility to larger structural components like wing ribs. The MAG4 integrates the 33k RPM / 130 kW spindle with rapid acceleration and through spindle coolant capability to maximize...

Built for High-Performance Machining - Decades of nx-Series improvements have steadily advanced the a51nx's productivity, accuracy and reliability. One key contributor is the machine's proprietary high-speed, high-power spindle. Designed and built at Makino’s dedicated spindle factory,...

An exploration into how SPC requirements affect processing decisions in modern metal machining. What is the connection between conformance and SPC level? What procedures should be used to decide, in the planning stages, which potential process is best? How is fixture design affected? This is the first...
