2008 DALIAN VDL 1300 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2008 Dalian VDL 1300 is a 3-axis vertical machining center manufactured by DMTG (Dalian Machine Tool Group) of China, designed for versatile production milling, drilling, and tapping of medium to large workpieces across a range of materials. The machine is built on a rigid cast iron base and column structure that provides the structural stiffness and damping characteristics required for accurate cutting in steel, cast iron, and aluminum alloys. The spindle delivers 7.5 kW of continuous power and operates at up to 8,000 RPM through a BT 40 taper, enabling versatile cutting performance across a broad speed range. The working table measures 51.2 by 23.6 inches (1,300 by 600 mm) and supports axis travels of 50.8 inches in X, 22.8 inches in Y, and 24.4 inches in Z, accommodating a generous range of part sizes suited to production machining environments. The Fanuc 0i-MD CNC control provides comprehensive G-code compatibility, high-speed processing, and a reliable production-floor operator interface. The machine has an overall footprint of approximately 118.1 by 110.2 inches with a height of approximately 110.2 inches, and weighs approximately 15,432 lbs. The VDL 1300 represents DMTG's commitment to providing capable, cost-effective large-format vertical machining centers suited to production environments in diverse manufacturing industries including general engineering, automotive components, and industrial equipment manufacturing.
