2014 CHEVALIER QP1620 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2014 Chevalier QP1620 is a 3-axis CNC vertical machining center from Chevalier Machinery of Taiwan, representing the compact end of the QP product family and designed for high-speed precision machining of small-to-medium components. The CAT-40 Big Plus spindle delivers 7.5 HP and reaches a maximum speed of 15,000 RPM, enabling aggressive cutting rates in aluminum, brass, and engineering plastics with excellent surface finish. The work table measures 27.6 x 12.6 inches, with axis travels of 20.5 inches in X, 14.5 inches in Y, and 15.0 inches in Z. Rapid traverse reaches 1,889 IPM on all axes. A 21-tool ATC with a 1-second tool-change time supports highly efficient production cycles. Control is provided by the Fanuc 0i-M CNC system. Linear motion guideway construction on all axes delivers fast, precise positioning and low maintenance requirements. The QP1620's compact footprint and high spindle speed make it well-suited for electronics enclosure machining, medical device components, optical mounts, and other precision small-part applications. Overall machine dimensions and weight were not confirmed from publicly available OEM documentation for this model.
