Okuma’s GENOS M460V-5AX combines productivity and precision
21.02.2019
With the GENOS M460V-5AX, Okuma, represented in Slovenia by Celada d.o.o., offers a 5-axis machining centre that provides highest quality at an entry-level price. Equipped with multiple hardware and software solutions for accurate and productive operations, the machine satisfies even the most demanding needs.
The Okuma GENOS M460V-5AX is an entry-level 5-axis machining centre that combines high manufacturing quality with economic properties. Capable of handling workpieces with 600 mm in diameter and 400 mm in height with a maximum weight of 300 kg, the CNC-machine is suitable for various applications. The new generation possesses a tool magazine capacity of 48, making the latest version of GENOS M460V-5AX also the most versatile model. Currently, the previous model with a tool magazine capacity of 32 is for sale at an exceptionally low price.
High-performance spindle
Equipped with a spindle that offers 15,000 min-1, the machine tool achieves high productivity for a wide range of applications. Providing a maximum output of 22 kW and 199 Nm of maximum torque, the spindle processes even demanding materials with ease. Its five sets of bearings are lubricated with oil mist and do therefore not require maintenance. By providing through-spindle coolant, the spindle adds to the shower coolant function. Manufacturers benefit from a three-year spindle warranty that is not limited by any number of shifts or operating hours.
Built for precision
The machine tool guarantees close manufacturing tolerances and high precision. For efficient and accurate measuring, the machining centre is equipped with a Renishaw touch probe RMP60. The X, Y and Z axes possess an absolute scale. In addition to the hardware, Intelligent Technology applications like Machining Navi for reducing chatter or 5-Axis Auto Tuning System for compensating geometrical errors enhance the machine’s accuracy further. As a result of these precision-improving measures, GENOS M460V-5AX achieves a positioning accuracy of 2 µm in X, Y and Z.
Greatest rigidity
The GENOS M460V-5AX was created for maximum precision, stability and reliability. Its cast iron double-column machine bed is the most rigid and proven machine base in its class. Weighing 8,300 kg in total, it provides an extremely stable foundation. With more than 10,000 sets installed worldwide, the base proves its reliability. Also the double-side support NC table stands out as it is the most rigid in its class as well.
Thermally stable
For highest precision, the 5-axis machining centre is equipped with Okuma’s Thermo-Friendly Concept. The concept includes a symmetric box-build double-column construction made of cast iron. To eliminate negative influence from the coolant and the heat of hot chips, the machine possesses a thermo-shield design. In addition, five temperature sensors in the machine and three sensors in the spindle measure temperature changes and allow for an active compensation of thermal deformation.
