Cubic VB-1400 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a spacious 59" x 25.5" work table capable of supporting workpieces up to 3,520 pounds, making it suitable for mid-to-heavy duty production runs. The machine is equipped with a CAT 40 spindle taper rated at 8,000 RPM maximum with 14.7 horsepower (30-minute rating), providing adequate power for both roughing and finishing operations across a variety of materials. The three-axis configuration delivers substantial travel distances with 55.1 inches of X-axis motion, 30 inches of Y-axis travel, and 27.6 inches of Z-axis clearance, accommodating larger workpiece geometries common in aerospace, automotive, and industrial manufacturing applications. The rapid traverse rates reach 787 inches per minute across all three axes, while cutting feed rates of 196 inches per minute support efficient material removal. The 24-tool automatic tool changer with an exceptionally quick 1.8-second tool change time minimizes non-cutting idle periods and enhances overall productivity. Optional support features including index and rotary tables expand operational flexibility for complex multi-axis work without repositioning. This machine delivers the precision, power, and capacity required for demanding production environments where throughput and dimensional accuracy are critical performance metrics.
