CLAUSING FV1-48CNC-D VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The CLAUSING FV1-48CNC-D is a vertical machining center designed for precision milling with a robust worktable measuring 9" by 48", supporting workpieces up to 700 lbs. It features a vertical spindle with a 30 taper, powered by a 3 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, and delivers spindle speeds up to 4,000 RPM. The machine operates on a 3-axis system with travels of 30" (X), 15" (Y), and 5" (Z), each axis offering a maximum feed rate of 196 inches per minute and a rapid traverse rate of 200 inches per minute. This VMC is equipped with a manual tool carrier holding a single tool, facilitating straightforward setup and tool changes. The spindle’s vertical orientation and taper type enable compatibility with various tooling standards, optimizing versatility for different milling tasks. The travel dimensions and feed capabilities provide a balance of precision and speed for moderate-sized workpieces, making it suitable for prototype fabrication and small to medium production runs. Its compact spindle speed range and manual tool handling suggest a focus on controlled, precise machining rather than high-speed automated tool changes. Overall, the CLAUSING FV1-48CNC-D offers a sturdy platform with suitable power and travel for vertical milling applications requiring moderate capacity, precision, and reliability.
