Masteel offers the successful Eumach TVMC fixed table traveling column vertical 3/4/5-axis machining centres with the following beneficial features for ultimate job shop machining flexibility:
the side-by-side dual work zones reduce or eliminate non-cutting work piece set-up / load / unload time (depending on the work piece machining time) compared with a single table 3 to 5-axis machining centre (with an average spindle uptime of 30%) or pallet change equipped 3 to 5-axis machining centre - as next work piece set-up is during machining time of the other work piece and there is no pallet change time
no work piece area access obstruction for work piece change with the dual work zone set-up
the fixed table / traveling column construction offers higher rigidity and precision accuracy (due to the elimination of table overhang) compared with a table traveling design
the fixed table offers easier chip disposal compared with a table traveling machine
the fixed table allows easy installation and operation of robot part loading and unloading automation and part fixture hydraulics
swivelling milling head / non-moving rotary table 2-axis combination on a linear 3-axis machining centre for extra work fixture rigidity and stability during 5-axis machining (no 2-axis trunnion table deflection under heavier machining loads)
up to 30° negative undercutting capability on both sides of the swivelling milling head
the centre partition can be removed to obtain an extended single work zone over the full table length
a wide variety of spindle choices to best-fit specific machining applications (from CAT#50 8000 rpm high power to HSK-A63 30000 rpm high speed)
a variety of tool magazines from 24 to 60 stations
- two work zones to increase spindle uptime -
- two work zones with CNC rotary table in one or two zones to increase 4/5-axis spindle uptime -
- one work zone for longer or multiple parts -

Note that the Autodesk Fusion CAD / CAM integrated cloud software works on Windows and Mac platforms. So this has become a popular CAM system for turning + machining centre owners / operators using a popular Mac computer (as i do to make my notes).
