In addition to our Intelligent Technologies, we offer a whole separate subset of Advanced Technologies to take your machining capabilities to the next level. At Okuma, while we’re always working to improve our innovations, we’re also working behind the scenes to develop the next potential machine enhancement, too.
Machining optimization for the most challenging parts
Designed for applications that would traditionally require a CNC lathe to turn a feature, Turn-Cut eliminates the need to purchase such special-purpose machines, along with any additional tooling, fixtures, or add-on components. In many cases, a part’s size, shape, or weight makes it impossible to set up on a lathe anyway; but with Turn-Cut, large, awkward, and unbalanced parts remain stationary as a new tool path is created.
Turn-Cut, an Okuma Advanced Technology:
High accuracy, even for complex surfaces
With our Super-NURBS feature, the OSP control projects a predetermined tolerance band that creates a spline considered to be the best fit for the job. This eliminates redundancies and allows for a smoother tool path in 3D settings. Crunching the data allows us to speed up movements—but the highest level of accuracy is maintained to create quality surface finishes.

Simulated success leads to error-free cutting
Our 3D Virtual Monitoring (3DVM) software provides accurate, 3-dimensional simulations based on the machine and program you’re using. That way you can safely, quickly, and accurately produce the desired part without worrying about the small errors that can have a huge impact on overall productivity. Ultimately, our 3DVM feature eliminates costly repairs by testing and editing programs before they ever hit the machine.

Intuitive programming, right on your machine tool
Advanced One-Touch (AOT) lets you easily create a program on your Okuma machine tool to optimize your machine’s capabilities. AOT allows you to describe part geometry using simple, menu-driven commands. The system then draws the defined shape before developing the complete part program for you.

Streamlined high-production gear manufacturing
The perfect combination of hardware and software, our affordable Gear Machining Package delivers a single multitasking machine that’s capable of high-accuracy gear cutting that previously required expensive dedicated machines. Simply enter the tool types, gear specs, and cutting conditions for seamless machining, whether you’re skiving or hobbing.
Gear Machining Package, an Okuma Advanced Technology:
Simple set-up for maximum control
Since Okuma’s OSP-P series control provides an open library of APIs (Application Program Interfaces), our gaging collaborators at Partners in THINC have easy access to all of the various registers, which allows our customers to take full control of their manufacturing processes. Since our gaging partners can log, track, and make offsets directly to the control—and without operator intervention—they can meet any and all of your pre-operation, in-process, or post-process gaging needs.

Additive and subtractive capabilities, within one machine
While traditional metal cutting will always have its place, in today’s market the ability to multitask isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. With our award-winning Laser EX Series, subtractive and additive capabilities are combined within a single machining center. These super machines also offer metal hardening, coating capabilities, heat treatments, and more.
