Mazak’s affordable and versatile VERTICAL CENTER NEXUS 510C-II HS 5X is an ideal solution for high speed machining applications. Equipped with a 40 taper, 50 Hp, 18,000 rpm integral spindle/motor, the VCN 510C-II HS 5X offers a large machining area, with X-axis travel of 41 in (1,050 mm), and full Y- and Z-axis ranges of 20 in (510 mm).
Users benefit from full five-axis contouring due to the inclusion of a tilting rotary table that provides 360º rotation and +/- 120º tilt. The table delivers exceptionally high positioning accuracy (+/-10 arc-sec) and repeatability (8 arc-sec) through its zero-backlash Roller-Drive mechanism and 0.0001-degree resolution.
The VCN 510C-II HS 5-axis has a maximum workpiece weight of 440 lbs. (200 kg) and a maximum part swing of 21 in (533.4 mm). The machine’s 3 linear axes attain high-speed rapid-traverse rates of 1,417 ipm at 0.5G acceleration and 5.2 seconds chip-to-chip tool change time further slashes non-cutting time in favor of increased production. The machine is equipped with a 30-tool ATC for generous tool storage capacity.
