How much does the Okuma GENOS M460V Vertical Machining Center cost?
Estimated price range
Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from Okuma. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
With 510 mm (20.1 in) of Z over a 762 x 460 mm X-Y stroke, the Okuma GENOS M460V is a compact vertical machining center whose working envelope is taller than it is deep. The listed travels are 762 x 460 x 510 mm (30 x 18.1 x 20.1 in). Okuma's current pages do not carry this model, so every number here is a listed figure to verify on the plate and manual of the machine.
Fixturing is where those proportions show. The table is 1,050 x 460 mm (41.3 x 18.1 in), longer than the X stroke, so a part cannot be cut along the whole table length, and the load limit is 600 kg (1,323 lb). The extra Z helps with tall vises, risers and long drills, which eat height quickly on a machine of this footprint.
The spindle is a 40-taper (BT40 / CAT40) unit listed at 12,000 RPM with an 18.5 kW (24.8 HP) motor: enough speed for aluminium and general steel work, though very small cutters will want more. Tool changes come from a 24-tool ATC at 1.2 sec chip-to-chip, the axes rapid at 36 / 36 / 30 m/min, and positioning accuracy is listed as +/- 0.003 mm. The control is the Okuma OSP-P300M and the machine weighs approx. 7,500 kg (16,535 lb).
The GENOS M460-VE on Okuma's current pages lists 32 tools and 22/18.5 kW (30/25 hp), which is the comparison to make if a new machine is also being considered.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Z travel of 510 mm (20.1 in), more than the 460 mm of Y, for tall fixtures and long tools
- Listed table load of 600 kg (1,323 lb) on a machine weighing approx. 7,500 kg (16,535 lb)
- 24-tool ATC with a listed 1.2 sec chip-to-chip time
- Accepts BT40 or CAT40 tooling on the 12,000 RPM spindle
- Listed positioning accuracy of +/- 0.003 mm
Limitations
- The 18.5 kW (24.8 HP) spindle motor is smaller than the 22/18.5 kW (30/25 hp) listed for the GENOS M460-VE
- X travel of 762 mm is shorter than the 1,050 mm table, so the table ends are out of reach
- The changer holds 24 tools, where the GENOS M460-VE lists 32
- Absent from Okuma's current pages; the listed figures should be verified on the machine

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The listed travels are 762 x 460 x 510 mm (30 x 18.1 x 20.1 in) on a 1,050 x 460 mm (41.3 x 18.1 in) table, and the listed table load is 600 kg (1,323 lb). Fixture and tool length come out of the 510 mm of Z, so the usable part height is less than the travel.
02
The spindle is listed as 40-taper (BT40 / CAT40). The automatic tool changer holds 24 tools and the listed chip-to-chip time is 1.2 sec. Confirm which of the two tapers a particular machine was built with, since holders are not interchangeable between them.
03
The listed spindle motor is 18.5 kW (24.8 HP) and the listed top speed is 12,000 RPM. For comparison, the GENOS M460-VE on Okuma's current pages lists 22/18.5 kW (30/25 hp).
04
The listed control is the Okuma OSP-P300M and the listed positioning accuracy is +/- 0.003 mm. Rapid traverse is 36 / 36 / 30 m/min. On an existing machine, ask for inspection or calibration records, because a listed accuracy figure describes the model and not the state of one machine.
