Compact VMC offers plenty of power and
speed
Although compact, this vertical machining centre offers a 12,000 rpm motor spindle, a 30-station tool magazine that can be loaded during a production cycle and a spiral chip conveyor.
The DMC64V linear is a new vertical machining centre from DMG (UK) that comes with an X-axis, a 12,000 rpm motor spindle, a tool magazine that can be equipped parallel to production time for 30 tools, a spiral chip conveyor and bed flushing mechanism in its standard configuration This new addition is therefore able to deliver unparalleled performance despite its compact frame

Dies milled dry at high speeds
The new DMC 65 V vertical machining centre applies high-speed cutting, dry machining and universal application in die making and series production with high dynamics and precision.
The linear drive in the X-axis, with accelerations of up to 0.5G and rapid traverses of 70m/min., guarantees high machining dynamics and ensures extremely short idle-times during pick-up tool changes, or chip-to-chip times, of only 5 seconds respectively.
These values are generally 30% quicker than those achievable with conventional drives.
With a work area of X - 640mm, Y - 600mm and Z - 500mm, the DMC64V has the capacity for a broad variety of machining operations.
Its advanced hardware is complemented by a choice of powerful control, the Siemens 810D powerline or Heidenhain iTNC 530.
A number of options are also available such as a motor-spindle with 8,000 rpm and 200Nm torque for higher performance milling.
An NC rotary table, coolant-through spindle option, drill breakage monitor - including tool length- and diameter measurement via laser - can also be specified.
