Our best estimate for a vertical machining centers (vmc) in this class — not a quote from Okuma. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Okuma MCR-A5CII is a No. 50 (BT 50) double-column machining center offered across a wide spread of sizes: 2,150 - 3,650 mm (84.65 - 143.70 in) between columns and 3,050 - 12,050 mm (120.08 - 474.41 in) of X-axis travel. At the long end that is a table stroke of twelve metres, enough for machine beds, press frames and long weldments in one clamping.

The spindle motor row states its rating basis. The standard VAC motor is 26/22 kW (35/30 hp), where the first figure is the 30-minute rating and the second the continuous one; the option is 30/22 kW (40/30 hp) on the same basis. The continuous figure is 22 kW in both cases, so the larger motor buys headroom for cuts lasting up to half an hour, not a higher all-day rating.

The spindle runs to 4,000 rpm as standard, with 6,000 and 10,000 rpm options. Rapid traverse is 30 m/min (98.43 fpm) in X and Y and 20 m/min (65.62 fpm) in Z. That Z figure is quicker than the 15 m/min listed for the MCR-C, which shortens the retract and approach moves that add up in drilling and tapping patterns.

The magazine holds 50 tools as standard; 80, 100, 120 and 180 are options. Y and Z travel, table size and table load are not on the product page, so take them from the quotation for the size chosen.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

X-axis travel from 3,050 to 12,050 mm (120.08 - 474.41 in)
Width between columns from 2,150 to 3,650 mm (84.65 - 143.70 in)
30 m/min (98.43 fpm) rapids in X and Y and 20 m/min (65.62 fpm) in Z
50-tool magazine as standard, with options up to 180 tools
Motor rating stated on a 30-minute and a continuous basis: 26/22 kW (35/30 hp) standard, 30/22 kW (40/30 hp) optional

Limitations

Continuous spindle power is 22 kW with either motor; the option raises only the 30-minute rating
Standard spindle speed is 4,000 rpm; 6,000 and 10,000 rpm are options
The MCR-BV lists a 43/37/30 kW (57/50/40 hp) standard spindle motor, more than the 30/22 kW option here
Y and Z travels and table load are not stated among the published rows

Best For

Long machine beds and weldments needing up to 12,050 mm (474.41 in) of X Wide workpieces on the 3,650 mm (143.70 in) column-width version Steel and cast-iron milling and boring on a No. 50 (BT 50) spindle at up to 4,000 rpm Multi-operation work drawing on 50 to 180 tools

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What X travels and column widths is the Okuma MCR-A5CII available in?

X-axis travel ranges from 3,050 to 12,050 mm (120.08 - 474.41 in). The width between columns ranges from 2,150 to 3,650 mm (84.65 - 143.70 in). Okuma's product page gives the ranges, not the individual steps, so the available combinations have to be taken from the quotation.

02 What does the 26/22 kW spindle rating on the MCR-A5CII mean?

Okuma gives the VAC spindle motor as 26/22 kW (35/30 hp), 30 min/cont. The first figure is what the motor delivers for 30 minutes and the second what it delivers continuously. The optional motor is 30/22 kW (40/30 hp) on the same basis, so its continuous rating is unchanged.

03 How fast is the MCR-A5CII spindle?

4,000 rpm as standard. Spindles of 6,000 and 10,000 rpm are listed as options. 4,000 rpm suits large-diameter face mills and boring bars in steel and iron; the faster options help when the same machine has to finish with smaller tools.

04 How does the MCR-A5CII differ from the MCR-BIII?

Both are No. 50 (BT 50) double-column machines with long-table options. The MCR-A5CII starts with a 50-tool magazine and a 4,000 rpm spindle with 6,000 and 10,000 rpm options. The MCR-BIII starts at 32 tools and lists five spindle ranges, from 10–4,000 rpm as standard to 30–10,000 rpm, with a 60/50 hp motor option.
