FAQs：

1. Can Alpha VMCs handle hardened steel molds?
Yes. With high-torque cutting modes and rigid structural design, our machines handle hardened tool steel up to HRC 55 efficiently.

2. What’s the typical surface finish from Alpha VMCs?
With proper tooling and parameters, Ra ≤ 0.4 μm is achievable, suitable for final mold surfaces without heavy polishing.

3. Can the machine be used for both roughing and finishing?
Absolutely. High-torque modes allow for aggressive roughing, and high-speed spindle modes are ideal for fine finishing.

4. Do you provide on-site calibration?
Yes. Our service team can calibrate the machine at your factory to ensure optimal accuracy.

5. Are custom table sizes available?
Yes. We can design table sizes and travels according to your specific mold sizes.
