Voss is your top choice one-stop shop for your machining needs. By close collaboration with our customers, we are capable to serve the unique demands of each and every customer.
Milling
Voss offers a wide range of milling capabilities, utilizing modern CNC technology. Our machine lineup offers a wide range of work envelopes. Voss has multi-axis milling capability, which allows us to machine components with challenging geometry and tight feature-to-feature tolerances. Our extremely talented and creative machinists are eager to push the limits to make the impossible possible, while consistently delivering unmatched precision and quality.
3-axis Vertical Mill
Max. travel (X, Y, Z): 80” x 37” x 40”
4-axis Vertical Mill
Max. travel (X, Y, Z, A): 43” x 22” x 20” x 360°
5-Axis Machining/Turn Mill Machining
Voss rounds out their machining capabilities with 5-axis technology and the turn mill. 5-axis technology enables us to reduce setups for the machining of unique features all while holding tight tolerances. The turn mill combines milling and turning capabilities into one machine. This enables high volume automated production of components with complex geometry. These two machines allow for maximum versatility and reduction of setups as well as providing accuracy and the reduction of human error. To optimize our machine programming, Voss utilizes Mastercam software with 3D models for the most basic to extremely complex part geometries.
