Vertical Machining Centers

What is Vertical Machining?
Vertical Machining, also known as milling, relies on rotary cutters to remove metal from a workpiece. Vertical machining occurs on a vertical machining center (VMC), which employs a spindle with a vertical orientation. With a vertically oriented spindle, tools stick straight down from the tool holder, and often cut across the top of a workpiece.
With the VTC series there is so much flexibility for 3, 4 and 5-axis machining, that you will be able to access almost any industry sector and deliver high quality precision parts quickly, reliably and competitively.
Mazak's Vertical Machining Centres serve the full spectrum of industries, from subcontract to aerospace.
