Overview

Vertical Machining (VMC)

Vertical machining centres handle prismatic components such as plates, housings and brackets, performing milling, drilling, tapping and boring with excellent flatness and positional accuracy.

Marcus runs VMC for both machined castings and solid-block parts, with fixtures that keep batch production consistent and repeatable.
