How much does the Nicolas Correa VERXA MW cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Nicolas Correa VERXA MW that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The Nicolas Correa VERXA MW is a gantry mill whose crossbeam moves up and down. Both features are in the name: M for the travelling gantry, W for the beam axis of 2,500 - 3,500 mm. With Z travel of 1,500 - 2,000 mm on the ram, the distance from the universal head nose to the table top reaches 3,140 - 4,140 mm.

Nicolas Correa stresses that W is a live axis, meaning it is positioned by the control during the program and is not just a setup adjustment. The beam is guided by 6 LM guideways, and every guideway has 5 rollers, of which 3 are hydraulic brake rollers that lock the beam once it is in position. A part with machining at floor level and at head height can therefore be finished in one clamping.

The working volume is long and tall more than wide. X travel is 8,500 - 29,500 mm, Y is 4,600 - 7,600 mm, and there is 3,400 - 6,400 mm between the columns. The table matches the VERXA M: 10,000 - 30,000 mm long, 2,500 - 3,000 - 3,500 mm wide, rated 10,000 - 15,000 kg/m2.

A single power and torque figure is given, 52 kW (69.7 hp) and 1,375 Nm (1,014 lb-ft), with programmable speeds of 4,000 / 6,000 / 10,000 rpm. The taper row adds a third choice not seen on the other VERXA pages: ISO-50, BT-50 or HSK-100. Feed is 30 m/min in X, Y and Z.

The maker positions the machine for high-volume parts, such as large frames, hubs and housings. For even wider work the HEXA MW starts at 7,000 mm between columns.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Live W axis of 2,500 - 3,500 mm on the crossbeam, guided by 6 LM guideways
3,140 - 4,140 mm between the universal head nose and the table top
Gantry X travel of 8,500 - 29,500 mm over a fixed table
52 kW (69.7 hp) and 1,375 Nm (1,014 lb-ft) with speeds of 4,000 / 6,000 / 10,000 rpm
Taper choice of ISO-50, BT-50 or HSK-100

Limitations

One power and torque rating only; no 70 kW option is listed, unlike the VERXA W
Ram travel is 1,500 - 2,000 mm, so deep reach inside a part still depends on Z, not W
No W axis feed figure is published
Tool magazine, head-changer and rotary tables are optional equipment

Best For

Tall, long workpieces machined at several heights in one clamping Large frames and housings up to 6,400 mm wide between columns Stationary heavy parts on a table rated 10,000 - 15,000 kg/m2 Shops standardised on BT-50 tooling

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What does 'W is a live axis' mean on the VERXA MW?

The crossbeam axis is controlled by the CNC like the other axes and can be moved within a program, not only set by hand before the job. It travels 2,500 - 3,500 mm on 6 LM guideways. Each guideway has 5 rollers, 3 of them hydraulic brake rollers that clamp the beam.

02 How tall a part can the VERXA MW machine?

The distance between the head nose (UAD) and the table top is listed as 3,140 - 4,140 mm. Vertical travel of the ram is 1,500 - 2,000 mm and the W axis adds 2,500 - 3,500 mm of beam travel. Tool length and fixture height come off the clearance figure.

03 How does the VERXA MW differ from the VERXA M?

The VERXA M has a fixed-height crossbeam and a head-to-table distance of at most 2,140 mm. The VERXA MW adds the W axis and reaches 4,140 mm. Its Y travel, 4,600 - 7,600 mm, is slightly longer, and its X travel, 8,500 - 29,500 mm, slightly shorter.

04 What spindle does the VERXA MW have?

The table gives maximum power of 52 kW (69.7 hp) and maximum torque of 1,375 Nm (1,014 lb-ft), with programmable speeds of 4,000 / 6,000 / 10,000 rpm. Taper options are ISO-50, BT-50 and HSK-100. The automatic universal head is standard equipment.
