BRIDGEPORT VMC-800 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust work envelope with 31.5" X-axis, 16.1" Y-axis, and 19.7" Z-axis travel capabilities, accommodating a generous 39.4" x 19.3" table surface area for versatile workpiece positioning. The machine is equipped with a BT40 spindle taper, the industry standard for precision tooling, supporting spindle speeds ranging from 40 to 6000 RPM for optimal material removal rates across various applications. The 15 HP spindle drive motor delivers substantial cutting power for demanding machining operations. Rapid traverse feeds of 1220 IPM on the X/Y axes and 787 IPM on the Z-axis enable quick non-cutting movements between operations, minimizing cycle times and improving productivity. The BT40 interface accommodates a wide range of tooling options, facilitating flexibility in part geometry and surface finishes. This machine configuration is well-suited for mid-range production applications, offering a practical balance between capacity and precision. The spindle speed range accommodates both high-speed finishing operations and heavy-duty roughing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The substantial table area and travel dimensions enable efficient machining of larger components while maintaining rigidity and repeatability. The specification profile indicates a machine designed for general-purpose manufacturing environments, tool and die work, and prototype development requiring reliable performance and dimensional accuracy in production settings.
