Okuma America Double-Column VMC Features Compact Footprint
The new Genos M560V-5AX offers a working envelope with a 500 mm table and wide axis travels, while still maintaining a compact footprint of 2,515 mm × 3,750 mm.
Okuma America Corporation’s Genos M560V-5AX is built with a double-column machine design, affording it maximum structural integrity. The machine offers a working envelope with a 500-mm table and wide axis travels (X: 1,050 mm, Y: 560 mm, Z: 460 mm), while still maintaining a compact footprint of 2,515 mm × 3,750 mm.
The Genos M560V-5AX features a trunnion table positioned parallel to the front of the machine, which enables easier access to the table and good visibility during machining. This, and other user-friendly features on the machine, reduce physical burden on the operator. Additionally, the machine comes standard with a 60-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) magazine and can also accommodate tools measuring up to 400 mm in length.
The Genos M560V-5AX comes standard with Okuma’s Thermo-Friendly Concept, an on-board thermal and energy management technology to support both stable, high-accuracy machining and reduce energy consumption.
