Amera Seiki VB-14 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 87.0 x 47.2 inches, with an optional extended length of 118.0 x 47.2 inches, capable of supporting workpieces up to 17,600 lbs. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle utilizing a BT 50 taper, delivering a maximum spindle speed of 6,000 RPM and a 30 HP (30-minute rating) motor for demanding machining tasks. Tool management is handled by a 24-position automatic tool changer (ATC), ensuring efficient tool exchange and reduced downtime. The machine operates on three axes (X, Y, Z) with travel distances of 87.0 inches (extendable to 126.0 inches) on the X-axis, 51.0 inches on the Y-axis, and 31.5 inches on the Z-axis. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds reach 472 IPM and 945 IPM, respectively, across all axes, enabling high-speed precision machining. The design does not include support for an index or rotary table, focusing on straightforward three-axis operations. The combination of a large work envelope, high load capacity, powerful spindle, and rapid axis movement makes this machining center suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications requiring accuracy and reliability.
