Machine Overview
Located in the heart of Tennessee and available immediately, we present our 2022 MAZAK VCU300A 5 AXIS Vertical Machining Center. This machine, like an untouched canvas, still has most of its potential unexplored, having being used primarily as a 4 axis mill in our operation. It still runs daily nonetheless, and while equipped for advanced 5 axis operations, it currently serves us in a less demanding capacity. The reason for letting go of this exquisite piece of machinery lies not in its capacity, but in our shift in operational focus, leaving it underutilized in its current role. Originally acquired at a price point of $180,000, this machine sports an impressive variety of upgrades and optional features that significantly enhance its overall capabilities. Among these additions, you will find a 1000 PSI Superflow Prep 71 PSI Thru Spindle Coolant w/ Flood, Mazak Super Flow V8M Variable High Pressure Coolant Unit, Dual Probing Kit (RMP600/RTS-AA) with EIA Inspection Plus, Mazak Standard Fixture I/F (Clamp / Unclamp & Part Seat), Smooth Engraving Function, Maximum Program Size: 32MB, 5-Axis Machining Package for KY SmoothX, Tool Radius Compensation / 5-Axis (G41.5 / G42.5), and a Robot Interface. Please note that toolholders are not included in the sale, and the machine is designed to work with 4140 material. Engineered within a compact design, this machining center integrates seamlessly into any workspace, with an easy installation process. In spite of its small size, it boasts impressive technical aspects, including a 11.81" travel distance in both X and Y axes, supported by a robust 18.7" Z axis movement. The spindle motor ebbs out 26 HP and can reach up to a notable 12,000 RPM. Equipped with a 40 CT spindle taper, it further offers easy workpiece accessibility. Additional technical specifications feature a maximum workpiece diameter of 6.29" and height of 6.1". Its extended 30-tool magazine and automatic tool changer are supplemented by the MX Hybrid Roller Guide System for a unique blend of speed and precision. An X-axis stroke of 11.8", coupled with insightful chip management, helps in minimization of downtime. The SmoothX CNC control further enables the potential for optimized 5-axis machining, while also supporting articulated robots for automated load and unload tasks. The consolidated takeaway here is a sophisticated, but underused machining center with an array of top-tier implements, waiting for a more suitable task that justifies its potential. We're excited for its next owner to unlock the full range of possibilities this machining center offers.
