Advanced technologies and increased capacity drive new levels of productivity for job-shop production environments

Mason, Ohio – May 24, 2017 – Building on its highly successful PS-Series product line, Makino is excited to announce the next-generation PS65 and PS105 vertical machining centers. Both models feature enhanced design characteristics and next-generation technologies that expand upon the capabilities of their predecessors. With an ideal blend of power, accuracy, speed and reliability, the PS65 and PS105 are redefining the standard for vertical machining center productivity within the aerospace, medical, automotive and general manufacturing industries.
 
“Whether you’re dealing with tough materials, like titanium, or free machining materials, such as aluminum, the new PS65 and PS105 provide a robust platform for cranking-up the productivity in virtually any shop environment,” said William Howard, Makino’s vertical machining product manager. “With the new PS105, we’ve expanded upon the PS95 providing a larger work table, a 14 percent increase in X-axis travel and overall work volume, providing additional work space for more parts or larger parts as needed. Increased rapid traverse rates on both machines provides further reduction in part processing times, improving productivity and reducing costs. In addition, the machines are production ready, touting a list of standard features including an integrated lift-up, scraper-drum chip conveyor (LUCC) and 3.0 Mpa (435 psi) through-spindle coolant system complete with cyclonic filtration. Simply put, there’s no other production vertical on the market today with this scope of standard features.”
