2018 AKIRA SEIKI V4 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2018 Akira Seiki V4 is a 3-axis vertical machining center from Akira Seiki's Performa V series, offering a larger X-axis work envelope than the V3 while sharing the same high-rigidity column and spindle architecture. The V4 features a BT-40 spindle taper with a 35 HP peak motor capable of speeds up to 12,000 RPM, with oil chilling for stable continuous cutting performance. The worktable measures 1,200 by 480 millimeters (47.2 by 19 inches) with a standard workpiece load capacity of 980 kilograms. Axis travels are 1,050 mm (41.3 inches) in X, 540 mm (19.8 inches) in Y, and 560 mm (22 inches) in Z. Rapid traverse reaches 44 m/min in X and Y and 25 m/min in Z. A 28-tool arm-type ATC is standard with a chip-to-chip time of 2.2 seconds. The machine is controlled by the Akira Mi:845 system (Fanuc G-code compatible). Overall machine dimensions are approximately 133 by 88 inches (3,370 by 2,240 mm), with a machine weight of approximately 6,522 kilograms (14,379 pounds). The 2018 build year reflects current-generation control and servo system specifications. The V4 is well suited for production shops requiring a mid-to-large vertical machining center for ferrous and non-ferrous parts. Standard equipment includes flood coolant, chip removal system, automatic lubrication, and full enclosure.
