Clausing KONDIA FV300 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical machining center features a substantial work envelope designed for precision manufacturing operations. The machine is equipped with a #40 taper spindle delivering 4,000 RPM maximum speed with 4.0 HP (30-minute rating), suitable for a variety of cutting applications. The work table measures 58 inches in length by 11 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,550 pounds, making it well-suited for medium to large-scale components. The three-axis configuration provides Y-axis travel of 15 inches and Z-axis travel of 5 inches, enabling vertical positioning and depth control for complex machining tasks. The manual tool carrier accommodates a single tool at a time, eliminating automatic tool change capabilities but reducing mechanical complexity for straightforward operations. This machine represents a traditional knee-mill design optimized for job shop environments where versatility and workpiece capacity take precedence over automated production speeds. The substantial table length-to-width ratio indicates suitability for elongated workpieces, multiple-piece setups, or operations requiring extended X-axis positioning. While lacking the high-speed spindle capabilities and automatic tool changers found in modern CNC machining centers, this equipment delivers reliable performance for manual control operations, tool-room applications, or shops requiring a robust, space-efficient milling solution for dimensional accuracy and repeatability in mechanical processing, moldmaking, and general metal removal tasks.
