VMX24

Big capabilities in a small package.

Not many machining centers in the world with a 610 mm X-axis travel that have as small a footprint (2,179×2,311 mm) as the Hurco VMX24. Even fewer with an accompanying 508 mm Y-axis travel. Then, packaged with all the additional features, it certainly stands alone.

As with all Hurco machines, the VMX24 comes with the most powerful control available. It’s also rigidly constructed to eliminate vibrations – even under the heaviest cutting conditions. The standard, 10,000 RPM spindle compares favorably to many machining centers costing considerably more.

The 24-station automatic tool changer goes from tool to tool in three seconds. That’s just more evidence that the VMX24 is about speed as much as it is power. The VMX24 can be upgraded to feature a higher-speed, 15,000 RPM spindle.

All Hurco VMX models include many standard features that are typically offered as options on most other vertical machining center brands.
