Our New Hurco VMX84Ti!
May 31th, 2023
Thanks to our partnership with Hurco Co. we have been able to acquire a new 4-axis machine! Being American owned and locally available, Hurco was able to deliver in a short order cycle. Our new VMX84Ti is a Cat 50 Big Plus taper spindle with 8,000 RPM 30 horsepower beast! With the 84” x 24” x 30” travel it will allow us to machine bigger parts faster and more efficiently than ever before. We also added a 320mm 4th axis rotary table because 4 axis is better than 3! This investment in the latest in CNC technology reduces production bottlenecks by increasing capacity both through the addition of the mill itself, but also by decreasing programming and set up time. During lights out, the VMX84Ti's probing system can check for wear on the tool and automatically change over to its sister tool! But it is not just about new technology, training the next generation of our workforce to meet the manufacturing challenges of the present and the future is fundamental to supporting our customers and Reducing Project Risk.
