Hurco CNC Machine Tools - VMX Series - Vertical Machining Centers

VMX84

Hurco's largest machining center

With X/Y/Z Axis travels of 84/34/30 inches, the VMX84 is the largest vertical machining center in the Hurco product lineup. The VMX84 was designed to meet the needs of customers who produce large parts, molds, and dies. The VMX84 is available with spindles speeds of 8K, 10K, 12K, or 15K.

All VMX Series machines from Hurco are known for their sturdy construction and exceptional accuracy due to larger ball screws and bigger servo drives. The increased metal removal rates and higher feed rates on the VMX machines decrease part cycle times significantly. Like every Hurco machine, the VMX84 features our world-renowned control.

The flexible Hurco control combined with the newly released WinMax^®control software provides the highest level of shop floor flexibility and software productivity for both G-Code and conversational users.

Features / Options

Huge work cube (50% larger on average than competitor models) lets the operator schedule a wider variety of work.
Robust conversational and NC programming tools provide the shop with options on how best to approach a particular part.
Advanced NC functionality includes graphical data-block searching which eliminates the tedious work of finding specific lines of code. Just point to a spot on the graphic and the Hurco control goes immediately to the corresponding lines of code.
Exceptional cutting feed rates of up to 600 ipm. Couple that with surface finishing and other process automation software options to get the fastest cut with the best quality.
The optional conversational probing aligns the machine to the part, not the other way around. That saves a tremendous amount of setup time.
Faster swing arm ATC with more tool pockets standard and the more reliable electrical indexer.
Larger door opening gives you more room to load and unload. Easy overhead crane access to load large, heavy parts or fixtures.
Huge work cube (50% larger on average compared to competitive models) lets you schedule a wider variety of work.
Enhanced NC interpreter includes powerful software features, such as Graphical Data Block Search that eliminates the tedious task of searching through hundreds of lines of code. Use the rendered graphic of the part and simply point to the spot you need to adjust—the software automatically finds the corresponding line of code.
