Machining an aerospace component on a Mazak SVC-200L/120

Enjoy this machining demonstration on a linear motor drive vertical machining center – the Mazak SVC-200L/120

Application: Aerospace component   |   Material: Aluminium

The Mazak SVC-200L/120 traveling column vertical machining center delivers high-speed and efficient machining of extremely long workpieces.

The Mazak SVC-200L/120 linear motors provide super-fast X-axis rapid traverse speeds to reduce non-cut times.

Designed for improved productivity thanks to high speed positioning, high speed feedrate and a high output spindle. Machining cycle time is reduced by 35 % when compared to comparable machines.

An optional center partition allows the Mazak SVC-200L/120 to be used as two separate machines. Setups can be performed as well as workpiece loading/unloading on one side while machining is being performed on the other.

The Mazak SVC-200L/120 is equipped with the Mazatrol SmoothG CNC, offering highly optimised CNC programming for complex CNC part production.

The control incorporates a wide variety of advanced CNC programming functions that allow it to offer complete ease of use and ensure high-speed, high-accuracy CNC machining performance.

Machine characteristics:
  • Long bed accommodates extremely long workpieces
  • Fast high-accuracy positioning and cutting rates
  • Efficient, ergonomic design allows for operator convenience
  • Advanced CNC technology offers easy programming and optimised performance
