BROTHER TC-R2B VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Brother TC-R2B Vertical Machining Center is a high-speed, compact CNC machine designed for precision drilling and tapping operations. It features a robust 15 HP main motor, capable of delivering up to 26.4 HP for 10 minutes at the start of cutting, ensuring strong performance for demanding applications. The spindle operates at a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM with a CAT 30 taper, supporting efficient tool changes and reliable tool holding. The machine is equipped with a 14-station drum-type automatic tool changer (ATC), allowing for quick and seamless tool transitions during production. The worktable measures 23.6" x 16.5" and can support up to 256 lbs per side, with a rapid table position time of 2.9 seconds for 180-degree rotation, enhancing productivity in high-volume environments. Axis travels are 16.5" (X), 12.8" (Y), and 12" (Z), providing ample workspace for a variety of part sizes. Rapid feedrates reach 1969 ipm on all three axes, while cutting rates are 394 ipm (X, Y) and 787 ipm (Z), ensuring fast and accurate machining. The hydraulic system operates at 3,000 PSI, supporting high-pressure coolant delivery and robust tooling requirements. With its compact footprint and advanced control system, the TC-R2B is ideal for shops seeking high-speed, high-precision vertical machining in a space-efficient design.
