Machine tool series features HMCs, VMCs and a turning center designed on a common platform, forming the ultimate modules for an automotive production line.

Mori Seiki's NX series features horizontal and vertical machining centers and a turning center designed on a common platform, forming the ultimate modules for an automotive production line.

The NX Series delivers robust mass production performance along with the scalability and flexibility to alter the line as production requirements change.

Reflecting the compact workpieces for which they are intended, the NX Series machines measure just 26.8in.

wide by 90.4in.

deep, with a workpiece capacity of 5.5in.

diameter by 3.9in.

tall.

The addition of available gantry loader, robot, or pallet carriage systems allows automated movement of workpieces among the machines.

Mori Seiki implemented DCGO (Driven at the Center of Gravity) technology into the NX series.

This, along with a box-in-box construction, allows for rapid acceleration/deceleration rates with minimal vibration.

Rapid traverse rate is 1,969in/min along all three axes for each machine.

The NX Series is highly reliable, and quick maintenance was closely considered throughout the design process.

The 12,000 rev/min (20,000 rev/min optional) spindle's cartridge design enables spindle exchange even with access limited to the machine's front.

The main electrical box is mounted on hinges, allowing it to be swung to the side to access the machine's rear.

Initial offerings in the NX Series include the NX2000V vertical machining center, NX2000H horizontal machining center, and NX2000T turning center.

All machines accept HSK-A40 tooling with maximum length of 7.1in.

Mori Seiki produces extremely reliable machine tools and distributes worldwide.

The U.S.

headquarters is in Dallas with offices in Boston, Chicago, Cincinnati, Detroit, Los Angeles, and New Jersey.
