Makino

Makino represents precision, innovation, and reliability in the CNC machinery industry. Founded in Japan, Makino has been at the forefront of CNC technology since the 1960s, introducing Japan’s first machining center in 1966. The company offers a wide range of CNC machines, including vertical machining centers, horizontal machining centers, 5-axis machining centers, and EDM machines. Makino’s products are known for their high-speed spindles, robust construction, and advanced control systems, making them suitable for various industries such as aerospace, automotive, and die/mold manufacturing. Their commitment to precision is evident in features like pre-tensioned ball screws, thermal stability systems, and proprietary control technologies like SGI.5.

Used Makino equipment offers significant value for manufacturers seeking high-quality CNC solutions without the cost of new machinery. These pre-owned machines often retain their precision and performance capabilities due to Makino’s focus on durability and quality construction. Many used Makino machines come equipped with advanced features like high-speed spindles (up to 20,000 RPM), automatic tool changers with large capacities, and multi-axis capabilities, making them versatile options for complex machining tasks. The longevity and consistent performance of Makino machines, with some models capable of accuracies measured in microns, make them attractive investments in the secondary market, allowing businesses to enhance their production capabilities at a fraction of the cost of new equipment.
