Machining Solution Supports the Moldmaking Industry's Demand for High-Precision Surface Milling

The YASDA YMC650, exclusively important and sold in the United States by Methods Machine Tools is a high-end machine designed to support the industry’s rapidly increasing demands for ultra-precision and high-quality surface milling.

Many of today’s OEMs are looking for molds to sustain three million hits. That’s a big number, and a significant increase from the days of molds providing fewer than one million hits. These higher demands require superior technology to deliver the expected quality in the least amount of time.

With the YASDA YMC650, all controlled axes (X, Y, and Z) are driven by high-speed linear motors, a highly-rigid symmetric frame design and a unique thermal distortion stabilizing system which sustains machining accuracy in long cycle time operation. The results are unsurpassed high-accuracy and excellent motion performance in various applications.

The five-axis version is integrated with a high precision rotary tilting table with direct drive motors. Further, with Methods’ Automation Services, the YASDA YMC650 can be paired with easy-to-use pallet-changing solutions to keep your machine in the cut across multiple shifts for those especially long projects.
