The V22 vertical machining center is designed to eliminate vibration, rotational deflection and thermal distortion to ensure precision, accuracy, reliability and excellent stability. Designed to machine complex materials, including ceramics, intricate cores and cavities, the V22 offers a standard 113-hp continuous 40,000-rpm spindle that is complemented by Makino’s patented core-cooling and under-race lubrication system. Machine construction features integrally casted slideways and no overhangs, providing excellent rigidity and dampening characteristics. The rapid traverse allows for fast cutting feeds, which boosts productivity by reducing out-of-cut time and increasing metal-removal rates.
