Overview

The Makino PS95 is a CAT 40 vertical machining center that is not in Makino's current lineup, so this page mainly serves someone looking at a used machine. The listed figures give 920 mm (36.2 in) of X, 508 mm (20 in) of Y and 460 mm (18.1 in) of Z over a 1,170 x 510 mm (46 x 20 in) table with an 800 kg (1,763 lb) load rating. They could not be checked against a current Makino page.

The spindle is listed at 14,000 RPM and 25 kW (33.5 hp). Thirty tools are standard, expandable to 60, with a 1.2 sec tool-to-tool and 3.8 sec chip-to-chip change. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) in X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) in Z. The listed accuracy is ±0.003 mm positioning and ±0.002 mm repeatability, and the control is Makino Professional P.

In size it sits between the two current PS machines. The PS65 has 660 mm (26.0 in) of X on a 920 x 510 mm (36.2 in x 20.0 in) table, and the PS105 has 1,050 mm (41.3 in) on a 1,300 x 510 mm (51.1 in x 20 in) table. The PS65 and PS105 both list an X rapid of 48,000 mm/min, against the 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) listed here.

On a used PS95, confirm the spindle hours and the tool changer count, and check which magazine is fitted. The machine weighs 6,800 kg (14,991 lb), so plan rigging and check the floor before it ships.
