This ultimate machining center offers a 40,000-RPM spindle with superior finishing abilities, ideal for intricate work. The V22 delivers superior performance in a footprint that is only two-thirds that of the popular Makino V33. It is ideal for precision parts manufacturing, such as medical equipment and small and intricate molds for plastic injection-molding operations. "Makino is raising the bar with the V22, challenging even our own engineering to go beyond previously attained results on other machines as the ultimate hard-milling solution," explains Bill Howard, Makino VMC Product Line Manager. "The machine provides precision, accuracy and excellent stability." Built for precision and superior surface finishes Designed to machine complex materials, including ceramics, as well as intricate cores and cavities, this newest addition to Makino's line of die/mold machining centers offers a standard 11.3 HP continuous, 40,000-RPM spindle. It is complemented by Makino's patented core cooling and under-race lubrication lubrication, introduction of a substance between the contact surfaces of moving parts to reduce friction and to dissipate heat. A lubricant may be oil, grease, graphite, or any substance—gas, liquid, semisolid, or solid—that permits free action of system that has proven essential for optimal high-performance applications. The X-axis of 12.6 inches (320 mm), Y-axis of 11 inches (280 mm) and Z-axis of 11.8 inches (300 mm) operate in a work zone and table size of 17.7 inches x 13.8 inches (450 mm x 350 mm).

The machine features an HSK-E32 spindle interface with a standard 30-tool automatic tool changer Changer The name given to a clearing member that is willing to assume the opposite position of a futures contract within a larger alternative exchange, of which it also is a clearing member. with a larger 60-tool changer option. A hybrid, automatic tool length measuring device (ATLM ATLM Alternating Transmission Line Matrix ) is also optional. In continuous machining jobs using an ATC ATC Air Traffic Control ATC Average Total Cost ATC Certified Athletic Trainer ATC At the Center (Hartford, Maine retreat center) ATC Applied Technology Council ATC All Things Considered , tiny level differences can occur at the seams of machined surfaces due to tool changes. Polishing these features to correct such small levels is very time consuming. The hybrid automatic tool length measuring device available on the V22 positions the tool tip more accurately to achieve superior finished surfaces with minimal level differences. This unique ATLM device offers a high-tech solution without interfering with the workzone. The tool tip position is measured with a low-contact pressure probe, while the spindle nose position is measured with a non-contact sensor. The V22 also demonstrates its quality and superior capabilities through the following features: -- All axes motion is guaranteed to deliver straightness and perpendicularity of 0.00012 in. (3 micron) full stroke. -- Machine construction is such that there are no overhangs, providing excellent rigidity and dampening characteristics. -- Patented SGI (SGI, Sunnyvale, CA, www.sgi.com) A manufacturer of workstations and servers, founded in 1982 by Jim Clark. The company was founded as Silicon Graphics, Inc., but changed to its acronym in 1999. .4 virtually eliminates quadrant protrusions and greatly improves circularity even at high feed rates. -- The rapid traverse allows for fast cutting feeds, which boosts productivity by reducing out-of-cut time and increasing metal removal rates. To maximize shop floor space, the V22 measures 4.9 ft x 6.5 ft (1,500 mm x 2,000 mm), and all setup work is concentrated within the machine's front width of 4.9 ft (1500 mm). With a fully enclosed splash guard, the coolant coolant (kōō´l  nt),n tank slides out from the front of the machine. The front-loading chip bucket is shaped for easy and efficient chip emptying, even during machine operation.
