Okuma America Corporation reported it has added a new vertical machine to its line of multitasking machining centers, which it said provides reliable machining for a variety of production needs. The MU-6300V complements the existing line-up with its own contributions for high efficiency and high-productivity five-axis, multi-sided machining.
Okuma America is the U.S.-based affiliate of Okuma Corporation, a CNC machine tool builder headquartered in Nagoya, Japan. It calls itself “the industry’s only single-source provider, with the CNC machine, drive, motors, encoders, spindle and CNC control all manufactured by Okuma.”
The MU-6300V CNC vertical machining center has a rigid and accurate double column structure and low center of gravity in its trunnion table, both features that support heavy duty cutting activity and high speed finishing. It’s built on Okuma’s Thermo-Friendly structure — a concept that aims to minimize excess heat generated in the machining process, as well as to compensate for heat that may cause thermal deformation. The MU-6300V, according to the developer, “performs consistently from the first part to the last, regardless of warm-up time or ambient temperatures.”
