Vertical Machining Centers vs. Horizontal Machining Centers

Despite doing similar jobs, the Vertical and Horizontal Machining Centers are two very different beasts. Understand the difference before you buy your next.

A few years back we ran a piece comparing and contrasting the functionality of Vertical and Horizontal Machining Centers. The exact distinction is still an area of confusion for many, and given the price of buying even a used CNC machining center (especially a horizontal), we figured it was never a bad time for a refresher. Seeing as our previous article was published a while back, we have decided to update it into an easy to read infographic:
