The Hurco VM10Ui (XYZ travels: 535mm by 406mm by 482mm and A and C rotary axes travels: +30°/-110° and 360°) is a 5-axis machining center that utilises real trunnion table integration and provides more clearance in Z.

Complete integration of ProCobots into the Hurco control eliminates daunting robot programming and makes it easy to optimise operations through automation. With quick installation and changeover (less than 5 minutes) and high flexibility, ProCobots automation increases production for high-mix manufacturing. ProCobots can handle low-value tasks so machinists can focus on the high-value tasks.

“Hurco is known for its powerful and intuitive conversational programming, which only makes sense considering that form of programming was invented by the company’s co-founder, the late Gerald Roch,” said a company spokesperson. “However, even machine shops who use G-code and rely on CAD/CAM software have found increased productivity by leveraging the versatility of the Hurco control. These shops often use NC for the complex parts, but use conversational programming for one-offs, simple 2D work and fixturing.”
