Dalian VDL 1000 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a rigid table measuring 44" x 22", capable of supporting a maximum workpiece weight of 1,653 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty machining tasks. It is equipped with a vertical spindle offering BT 40 taper (optionally CAT 40) with a top speed of 8,000 RPM, which can be optionally increased to 10,000 RPM. The spindle is powered by a 20 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, delivering substantial cutting power for high material removal rates. The tool handling is managed by a 24-tool arm-type automatic tool changer (ATC) with a fast tool change time of 3 seconds and chip-to-chip time of 7 seconds, enhancing productivity by minimizing downtime. This CNC machine operates on a 3-axis system with travel ranges of 40.16" in X, 22.00" in Y, and 23.60" in Z. The machine offers high feed and rapid traverse rates up to 1,181 inches per minute for all axes, optimizing cycle times and precision positioning. The robust construction and designed capabilities make it applicable for demanding milling, drilling, and boring operations in industries including aerospace, automotive, and heavy machinery manufacturing. This compact yet powerful setup ensures versatility and efficient machining of large and heavy workpieces with precision and speed.
