Okuma's MCR-BV Double Column Machining Center for 5-Face Applications

Oguchi, Japan – Okuma Corporation extends its flagship model MCR-B Series, presenting MCR-BV (MCR-B5), a high-efficiency, high-accuracy double column machining center for 5-face machining applications, with the ‘fusion’ of machining and measuring functions. In addition, more than 100 types of spindle-head attachments can be used, and different complicated large parts can be completed with one machine. The company provides high productivity by optimizing for machining large parts required in a wide range of industrial machines, especially for low-carbon energy markets like the semiconductor manufacturing equipment and energy-related sectors (wind, solar and gas power), as well as for aerospace fields.

The MCR-BV has been designed as a machine for any operator to easily achieve and maintain the high accuracy levels of large machine tools that machinists using the various Okuma Intelligent Technologies have previously needed. For processing a variety large parts, in addition to roughing, finishing, and performing complicated multi-face operations, Okuma made it possible to process parts up to the final product, including measuring, on one machine using high levels of process-intensive machining.

The machine autonomously maintains stable high accuracies, with a range of Intelligent Technologies that made possible machining-to measuring operations possible on the machine are now standard equipment. Its highly rigid mechanical structures and high-output integral motor/spindle achieves high efficiency, high-quality and process intensive machining, which accepts various changeable spindle-heads, X-axis travel extension and faster rapid traverse. In addition, its excellent maintainability features reduce both the environmental impact and the burden on operators.
