CHEVALIER UNI5X-400 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The CHEVALIER UNI5X-400 is a high-performance vertical machining center designed for precision 5-axis milling applications. It features a robust machining envelope with X, Y, and Z travel capacities of 29.5", 24", and 21.6" respectively. The machine is powered by a 14.9 kW spindle capable of reaching up to 12,000 RPM, enabling efficient high-speed machining of complex parts. It utilizes a CT40 taper spindle with "Big Plus" spindle technology that enhances spindle rigidity and precision through dual contact between spindle and tool holder, improving machining accuracy and tool life. The table measures 12.6" x 12.6" and supports a 30-position automatic tool changer, offering flexible tool management for varied machining tasks. This center is equipped with the Fanuc 0i-MF CNC control, renowned for advanced multi-axis control capabilities, including simultaneous 4-axis interpolation and 5-axis machining, as well as features such as nano-smoothing, helical interpolation, and jerk control to optimize surface finish and cycle time. The control supports extensive tool life management, program restart, and multiple work offsets, facilitating precise and efficient machining setups. Integrated Blum RC66 touch receiver allows for quick, reliable tool setting and workpiece measurement. Overall, the CHEVALIER UNI5X-400 combines mechanical robustness, advanced spindle technology, and sophisticated CNC control for versatile and accurate machining of complex geometries in a compact footprint.
