MANUFACTURING

Vertical Machining Centres (VMCs) are integral to the die and mould-making industry, offering precision, efficiency, and versatility. Maxmill Technologies leverages advanced VMC machine to deliver high-quality moulds and dies for diverse applications such as plastic injection moulding, die casting, and metal forming.

VMC machine is ideal for complex metal processing due to their ability to perform multi-axis machining with high accuracy. They are equipped with features such as high-speed spindles, automatic tool changers, and advanced software controls that ensure precision in machining operations

The process of die and mould making through VMC machines involves several key steps:

Setup and Machining

Material Preparation: The mould material is secured in the work holding system, such as visas or fixtures.

Tool Loading: Cutting tools are loaded into the machine’s tool magazine.

Machining Operations: Using programmed toolpaths, the VMC removes material from the mould block to create cavities, cores, and other features. High spindle speeds enable operations like milling, drilling, and contouring with exceptional precision

Precision and Accuracy: VMCs achieve tight tolerances essential for high-quality mould production. Features like rigid structures and dynamic compensation systems ensure dimensional accuracy

Versatility: These machines can handle various materials such as steel, aluminium, and alloys, accommodating different mould sizes and shapes

Efficiency: High-speed machining capabilities reduce production time while maintaining quality standards

Thermal Stability: Advanced cooling systems minimize imperfections caused by heat during prolonged operations
