Amera Seiki VB-32 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Amera Seiki VB-32 is a heavy-duty Vertical Machining Center (VMC) designed for large-scale, high-precision machining tasks. It features a vertical spindle with a BT50 taper, capable of speeds up to 6,000 RPM and rated at 30 HP (30-minute rating), providing robust power for demanding operations. The machine incorporates a 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z) with travels of 126" in X and Y directions (optionally extendable to 236" in X) and 43.3" in Z (up to 55.1" optional), enabling machining of large workpieces up to 39,600 lbs in weight. The worktable size measures 118" x 102" with an optional extension to 236" x 102", offering a substantial surface area for flexible workpiece mounting without rotary or indexed table support. The tool handling system includes a 24-position Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) supporting efficient multi-tool operations, enhancing throughput and reducing manual intervention. Rapid traverse rates across all axes reach 945 inches per minute, with maximum feed rates of 472 ipm, ensuring swift positioning and minimal cycle times. The VB-32’s vertical spindle orientation optimizes chip evacuation and coolant flow, improving machining accuracy and operator access. Its construction supports precision milling, drilling, and complex contouring on large, heavy components, suitable for industries requiring stringent tolerances and high productivity. This machine is ideal for heavy manufacturing and intricate parts production where large size, power, and reliability are critical.
