What is the difference between a VMC and HMC auction?
VMC (vertical machining center) auctions typically attract a broader buyer pool including small and mid-size job shops. HMC (horizontal machining center) auctions draw larger manufacturers and production shops due to the higher pallet-changing capacity and production orientation of horizontal machines.
How are machining centers priced at auction?
Pricing depends on brand, age, spindle hours, condition, and tooling included. Well-maintained Haas VF-series machines regularly sell for $30,000–$150,000 at auction; premium brands like Mazak Integrex or Makino can reach $200,000+.
