Both the MU-8000V-L and the MU-4000V-L provide the power of process-intensive machining and high-speed, high-accuracy cutting through a combination of turning and 5-axis multitasking machining.
Okuma’s 5-axis machining centres MU- 8000V-L and MU-4000V-L grant the unrivalled accuracy customers have come to expect from the manufacturer. Both machines are ideally suited for use in die and mould construction, in medical applications or for the manufacturing of very complex aerospace or automotive components. While the MU-8000V-L features a more generous working area, the MU- 4000V-L is smaller in its overall dimensions. Both models deliver high traversing speeds and high cutting performance and offer maximum flexibility in 5-sided or 5-axis simultaneous machining of complex shapes. Process reliability, dimensional stability and geometrical accuracy are ensured thanks to a sturdy portal construction and the Thermo-Friendly Concept. The latter combines control technology and machine design to minimise the amount of heat generated and enable extremely accurate thermal deformation compensation. The MU-8000V-L and the MU-4000V-L are operated with Okuma’s OSP suite, which delivers the best IT-applications in one package.
Plenty of options for specific challenges
Okuma provides several options that can be used on both machines to meet the specific demands of their customers. As part of Okuma’s Intelligent Technology, the 5-Axis Auto Tuning System allows operators to take precision to the next level. It effectively compensates geometric errors that can naturally occur when machining with a 5-axis CNC machine tool – including volumetric accuracy. Adjustments can be performed within approximately ten minutes, whereas manual methods can take several hours.
The system is easy to use and allows the operator to focus on machining. Thus, the 5-Axis Auto Tuning System is an effective way to efficiently prevent problems, such as shape defects in curve machining and steps in slope machining.
All MU-V series machines are fit for options like Dynamic Tool Load Control, the monitoring and skiving functions and the ECO Hydraulic Unit.
