Mazak’s VC-Ez 20X vertical machining center (VMC) provides accurate, cost-effective processing of complex parts via 3+2 or full five-axis machining. It features a rotary/tilt trunnion table with roller gear cam technology. For part-size flexibility, axis travels on the VC-Ez 20X measure 31.5" in X, 20.08" in Y and 20.08" in Z (1050 mm × 510 mm × 635 mm), with a rapid traverse rate of 1,260 ipm (42,011.6 mm/m) on all three axes. The machine accommodates maximum workpiece dimensions of 27.55" in diameter, 23" tall and weighing up to 881 lbs. The ergonomically designed machine requires only 99.72 sq ft of floor space.
The VC-Ez 20X features a 25-hp 12,000-rpm CAT-40 spindle with a 30-tool-magazine automatic tool changer. Options include a 15,000-rpm, 29.5-hp (22 kWh) spindle with 81.13 ft-lb (11.22 Nm) of torque and a 50-tool-capacity tool changer.
According to Mazak, VC-Ez 20X machine programming can shorten the learning curve for new operators, and Mazak’s Mazatrol SmoothEz5 CNC features a 15" touch screen with full keyboard. Within the control, EIA/G-code and Mazatrol Conversational programming languages provide a full range of programming options directly on the machine.
