Hunt for the VMC – Beginners Guide to buying a Vertical Machining Center



Apologies for the unusually low video quality – I’m posted ‘on site’ in Connecticut while working on CAMDEX reloading machines.

My wife and I drove by the MAZAK Technology Center after landing in Hartford and it reminded me to share my initial research and thoughts into buying a vertical machining center.

Looking forward to sharing this “research and learning” process with folks – hopefully this little series will continue as I find a VMC – if so, I’ll be sure to share details about buying process, rigging, tooling up, etc!

Don’t worry, Tormach is still going to be my ‘main’ machine – oddly, as I mention in this video, I’d like the VMC for more boring, repetitive work which will free up the Tormach for R&D, small jobs, etc. 5 Reasons to Use a Fixture Plate on Your CNC Machine: https://bit.ly/3sNA4uH
