DMG / Mori Seiki USA’s annual Innovation Days at the company’s American headquarters concluded on May 10 with exceptional results. During the three days of the event, thirty-six machines were demonstrated and over a dozen US premieres were highlighted, including the MILLTAP 700, DMU 65 monoBLOCK® and DMF 260/11.

Insiders close to the project called it “Mission Impossible”: Create a new generation of machines with enhancements to every aspect of operation. From the very beginning, expectations for the new X-Class Series—which features most major Mori Seiki machines—were sky high.

Mori Seiki is now taking orders for the NVX5000 Series of high-precision vertical machining centers with a No. 50 taper spindle variation.

The NVX5000 Series provides options and applications equivalent to those of the NV5000 Series (that sold more than 8,000 units) while achieving high levels of rigidity, thermal displacement stability and energy saving. And now, in addition to the No. 40 taper spindle specifications that were previously offered, Mori Seiki will expand the product line-up with a No. 50 taper spindle.
