Universal 5-Axis Milling Machine for Complex Workpieces



SNK America offers its CMV-100 Universal 5-axis milling machine. The CMV Series of machines are specifically designed for the production of complex workpieces, such as aircraft components, dies & molds or any intricate piece requiring continuous 5-axis, inclined surface machining. The CMV can be used to machine a variety of materials, including aluminum alloy, steel and titanium.

A column-feed design eliminates table overhang and increases accessibility to large workpieces. The machine has two rotary axes of spindle head tilt (A-axis) and table rotation (C-axis), in addition to the three linear axes of table longitudinal travel (X-axis), column traverse travel (Y-axis) and spindlehead vertical travel (Z-axis). All 5 axes are simultaneously CNC controlled.

The wide-tilting angle of the A-axis (from + 30° to -120°) allows expanded undercut capabilities. The 40/30 HP built-in spindle motor allows high speed, high power cutting of larger workpieces while offering a variety of spindle speeds for specific material cutting requirements. High speed linear guides with rigid construction maximize vibration damping at the tool tip for optimum tool life. An optimized high volume coolant system allows enhanced chip evacuation for efficient machining of titanium and other difficult to machine materials.

Tom Klukow, Vice President of Sales for SNK America, said "Whether it is for aero structure, jet engine, die/mold or general job shop production of large parts that require high speed, light duty or hard milling and heavy metal applications, the CMV models from SNK have a viable solution for large envelope part production."

"The CMV offers accuracy, convenience and versatility, plus the dependability that customers have come to expect from SNK machine tools," said a company spokesperson.
