MaQCenter, distributor of brands Okuma - a world leader in the design and manufacture of machine tools controlled by CNC (lathes, machining centers and grinders)-, - specialized in Conventional lathes and mechanical - Romi's precision, Takamaz - lathes and loading and unloading systems - and Huron, of great prestige in milling machines and specialized in the field of machining of high speed - among other brands, presented 17 machines, of which twelve were new in terms of color, design and services to the client.

The first model that sees the light is MU-400 VA, whose development is based on the current series MB of great acceptance in the market. The new machine, directed to the aerospace sector, incorporates a rotating Panel of high speed and high precision (Trunnion construction). It offers significant improvements over the previous model (Okuma VH40) and shows an increase in power of motor (x 1.5) and couple (x 2). The advance of court is increased by 33%, presents greater speed in the axis (X 4) and the axis (c) (x 4) and also reduced by 50% time change of ETS. He has a mayuores table dimensions (x 1.3) and are wide piece to machining capacity (x 5), as well as the ability to load (x 6). Another novelty introduced in Milan has been the series of centres of turning and milling integrated of Okuma, called the series MacTurn, with control of up to 9 axes.

They find to disposal the models MacTurn 250, 350 and 550 which can come instrumented with multiple and flexible configurations, motorised inferior turret milling machiness or no, subhusillos, diverse capacities of Warehouse of Tools, etc. The lathes multifunción of 4 axles also have showed for the first time in the EMO. They come instrumented with two turret milling machiness and two husillos, the first models LT200M and LT300M allow to incorporate besides an axis And. These lathes reduce until 40% the time of mechanised with regard to a conventional lathe. Between the most notable advantages with the previously existent models, Okuma LT10M and LT15, stand out the turret milling machiness that work indistinctly with both husillos. Likewise, the main motors have a greater power, have the function of motorisation of tool (M) with an increase of power of 65% and have of a greater mechanical rigidity.

Okuma has also presented a new series of horizontal centers with the MA100H series for high production application. This new line replaces the previous series MA10H, with new models designed with higher performance and rigidity. The family presents four different models according to size: MA400H, MA500H and MA600H, available in the news and the MA800H which will be available next year. Some of the most important advantages over existing models, Okuma MA40HA, MA50HB and MA60HB are a greater capacity of chip startup, an extension of spindle speeds as well as a greater acceleration, service from the spindles (x 2.5) life and shorter tool change. Also you get a faster indexing of axis (b), a shorter Pallet change, a tour in Z axis expanded in 65 mm (MA400HA); travel in z-axis expanded by 80 mm (MA500HB); tour in axis and expanded in 100 mm (MA500HB); travel in Z axis expanded in 190 mm (MA600HB) and a tour in axis and expanded in 100 mm (MA600HB).

The Emo has also been the framework for the presentation of new products of Romi. The company based in Brazil, showed two new machines for machining. On the one hand, the line D: model D760 Fanuc, Fanuc control, which includes a 10,000 rpm, 22 ATC and a 4th axis spindle table MGR-230 of new design. On the other hand, the new Tapping Center model VTC 30 B with Fanuc control, a 4th axis table MGR-160 again design, 12 spindle, 000rpm and 20 ATC (Tools). Two are also new types of lathes of Romi. M: M420 line, which incorporates a Siemens control, a flat table and post turret of eight positions high rpm (A2-5 x 4000) and the new line and with the winch E280, equipped with Fanuc control, sensor of tool and a motorized turret, with option of axis and and possibility to include subhusillo.Other leading products of Machine Center are series X, XD, LK, XY, Turn and Attack of CNC lathes for Takamaz major productions and the centres of machining and milling KX of Huron, an avant-garde concept of a machine with threefour and five axes.
