The MU-8000V 5-axis vertical machining center achieves high efficiency and high productivity in 5-axis, multi-sided machining. This CNC vertical machining center has a highly rigid and accurate double column structure and low center of gravity in workpiece movement (trunnion table) that enable both heavy duty cutting and high speed finishing. The high speed, high accuracy trunnion table means fast, accurate positioning for simultaneous 5-axis cutting. The MU-8000V can easily be adapted for use with APC, multiple ATC, automation or FMS without compromising operability because this expansion takes place at the back of the machine. Built on Okuma’s Thermo-Friendly structure, this machine will perform consistently from the first part to the last, regardless of warmup time or ambient temperature. The smaller MU-6300V of this series was honored in Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun’s (Business & Technology Daily News) 55th (2012) Best 10 New Product Awards.
