Overview

The Hurco VMX60i is a three-axis vertical machining center with 1,524 mm (60 in) of X and 610 mm (24 in) of both Y and Z. It is not in Hurco's current lineup and is most likely an older model, so the figures here could not be checked against a Hurco product page; treat them as the listed figures and confirm them on any machine you inspect.

The listed spindle is ISO 40 (CT40 / BT40), 10,000 RPM, 30 kW (40 hp) and 254 Nm (187 ft-lb). A 36-station dual-arm ATC changes tools in 3.0 sec tool-to-tool and 5.0 sec chip-to-chip, for tools up to 89 mm (3.5 in) in diameter, 400 mm (15.7 in) long and 9 kg (20 lb). The 1,524 x 610 mm (60 x 24 in) table carries 2,268 kg (5,000 lb) and has 5 slots at 80 mm (3.15 in) center distance. Rapid traverse is 25.4 m/min (1,000 ipm) on all axes.

For a buyer, the useful comparison is the current VMX6030i, which keeps 1,524 mm (60 in) of X but offers 762 mm (30 in) of Y and runs to 12,000 rpm on CAT 40. On a used VMX60i, check the taper actually fitted, the electrical supply of 230/460 VAC 3-phase, 100 A, and the 300 L (79 gal) coolant tank, and plan for a machine weight of 10,430 kg (23,000 lb). The control is listed as Hurco WinMax with conversational and G-code programming.
