Technical Description
The ACCUWAY UM-180 Vertical Machining Center offers a robust machining envelope with travel dimensions of 70.87 inches (X), 33.46 inches (Y), and 33.46 inches (Z), supporting substantial part sizes and complex machining tasks. Its table measures 34.57 inches in width and 78.74 inches in length, providing a large and stable work area capable of accommodating heavy workpieces, enhancing versatility across many industrial applications. The machine is equipped with a high-precision spindle featuring P4-class super precision bearings for strong axial resistance to cutting forces, ensuring durability and accuracy during heavy-duty operations. The spindle supports speeds up to 12,000 rpm, delivering efficient cutting performance. Feed rates for rapid travel on the X-axis reach up to 36 m/min, allowing quick and precise positioning. The UM-180 is controlled by a CNC system utilizing the Heidenhain CNC control, renowned for its high-precision digital motor control, multi-axis interpolation (up to 5 axes), and advanced functions such as Dynamic Collision Monitoring (DCM), Active Vibration Damping (AVD), and Adaptive Feed Control (AFC). These features promote high contour accuracy, surface finish quality, and process reliability while reducing setup time and preventing collisions. The CNC interface supports intuitive programming, including Klartext language, graphical contour programming, and comprehensive tool/workpiece management, suited for complex milling, drilling, boring, and 3D contouring applications. Overall, the UM-180 combines precision mechanical design with sophisticated control technology to meet demanding manufacturing requirements in vertical machining.
