Akira-Seiki V3A-XP VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a #40 taper spindle with a maximum rotational speed of 10,000 RPM and 20 HP (30-minute rating), delivering robust cutting performance for diverse manufacturing applications. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 2,200 lbs on its 37.5" x 16" work table, making it suitable for mid-sized component production. The 3-axis configuration provides 32" of X-axis travel, 20" of Y-axis travel, and 20" of Z-axis travel, with rapid traverse rates reaching 1,200 IPM across all axes, enabling efficient material positioning and cycle time reduction. An arm-type automatic tool changer manages 24 tools with an exceptionally fast 2.8-second tool change time, minimizing non-cutting intervals and maximizing productivity. The machine supports maximum cutting feedrates of 600 IPM on all axes, facilitating optimized metal removal rates across various materials and tool geometries. Optional accessories include a support index table and rotary table, providing flexibility for specialized workholding and multi-axis machining strategies. Optional pallet changer capability allows for lights-out operation and improved production throughput. The 8,000 RPM alternative spindle speed option accommodates applications requiring increased torque for heavier cutting operations. This combination of moderate size, rapid tool changes, high spindle speeds, and flexible options makes this machine ideal for job shop environments and facilities requiring versatile, production-capable vertical machining capabilities.
