HURCO’s smaller 5-axis machine gives you better finishes and cycle times
By Tom Skubala
Why choose a smaller 5-axis machine when you’ve got plenty of big ones out there? Tom Skubala of MTDCNC and HURCO’s Matthew Wainright discuss all the features and benefits, including more rigidity, stronger cuts, and simple programming. Large machines tend to create access problems to smaller parts such as longer reach tools or lifting parts off the trunnion to get the tool into the workpiece. Matthew shares how HURCO’s smaller 5-axis machine gives easier access to smaller parts, ultimately allowing for better finishes and cycle times. With a dual-contact big plus spindle, the machine offers greater rigidity and aggressive cuts. There’s no need for an expensive CAM system as all programming is done on the control. If you’re used to any programming that uses cycles, learning on HURCO machines is a piece of cake! HURCO also provide 3 days of training on any machine and a QR-coded book to go along in case you need a refresh. For more details on the VMX30UDi, get in touch with HURCO.
