Argo Seiki A-80 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a **worktable measuring 35.43 inches in length and 20.47 inches in width**, designed to support a maximum workpiece weight of 770 lbs. The machine offers optional support for index and pallet changers, with up to two pallets available for increased automation. It operates on three linear axes (X, Y, and Z) with travels of 31.5", 20.87", and 20.87" respectively, each capable of a maximum feed rate of 590 ipm and rapid traverse speeds up to 1,890 ipm. The vertical spindle employs a #40 taper and achieves a top speed of 12,000 RPM, with an optional lower-speed top RPM of 8,000. The spindle motor provides a 30-minute rated power output of 10 HP, upgradable to 15 HP for enhanced cutting performance. Tooling is managed via a 24-position automatic tool changer (ATC) with quick tool change times of 1.25 seconds and chip-to-chip times of 2.5 seconds, enabling efficient multi-tool operations. This machine excels in applications requiring robust workholding and high-precision vertical milling, suitable for machining steel, composites, and other materials within its size and weight constraints. Its rapid rapid traverse and feed rates support high productivity, while optional pallet changers facilitate continuous operation and reduced downtime. Overall, this 3-axis CNC vertical machining center delivers a versatile and efficient solution for medium to heavy-duty milling tasks with compact footprint and high spindle speeds.
