Methods 3-Axis Vertical Machining Centers include four initial models ‒ MV 800H, MV 1000H, MV 1100H and MV 1600H ‒ featuring a 15,000 RPM, 30 HP BIG-PLUS 40-taper Direct Drive Spindle with Oil-Air Lubrication and Spindle Oil Chiller, providing power, speed, superior surface finishing, long spindle life and thermal stability. Rigid box-way construction in the Z-axis utilizing Turcite B ensures exceptional cutting performance and machining accuracy. Turcite B technology was specifically developed to provide machines with superior rigidity, low friction coefficient, reduced vibration, excellent damping characteristics without stick-slip, as well as very high wear resistance for long machine life.
