We're a machine shop running for aerospace parts. We would like to purchase a new 5 axis CNC machine. Our shop is looking for two options, one is Matsuura MX850 and the other is Mitsui Vertex 75X II. Right now, our current orders in Aerospace industry is made from material Stainless Steel PH13-8 and Aluminim Alloy. Most parts size are in range of 100mm to 500mm. The tolerance requirement is true position 0.0005'' and perpendicularity 0.0005". The challenge is that we need to keep the true position on two surface after turning the table on a 5 axis CNC. Please let me know your recommendation whether to choose Matsuura MX850 or Mitsui Vertex 75X II ?
Secondly, if to recommend other machine other than above two, which one would you suggest? Makino D500 or DMG DMU50 orOkuma MU-6300V?
Thank you.
Hi I might be too late but here are my thoughts.
I have 3 Yasda machines and the only other machine that would use do this job is the Mitsui Seiki. They are both hand scraped and have thermal stability.
Your shop must also be temperature controlled. The parts I make need to be cut to .010 mm or .0004 inch on a 16 inch part.
