Denford NOVAMILL VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical machining center features a compact table size of 14.000 inches in length by 5.130 inches in width, supporting a maximum workpiece weight of 50 lbs. It operates with a single vertical spindle equipped with a #30 taper, optionally a BT 30, delivering up to 3,500 RPM. The spindle motor provides a 1.00 HP power rating (30-minute duty cycle), ideal for light to medium milling tasks. Tooling is handled via a slide-type tool carrier with one tool station and instantaneous tool change time (0.00 seconds), suitable for efficient single-tool operations. The machine operates on three axes (X, Y, Z) with travels of 9.000", 6.000", and 4.500" respectively, offering precise positioning. Each axis supports a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse speed of 59 inches per minute, balancing controlled feed with responsive rapid movement for tool and workpiece positioning. This vertical mill is optimized for tasks requiring moderate workpiece capacities and moderate precision, with capabilities suitable for small to medium-sized machining jobs such as prototyping, toolroom milling, and light production runs. The combination of vertical spindle orientation, moderate spindle speed, and three-axis travel makes it a versatile machine for shaping, drilling, and milling operations on small workpieces, suitable for various materials depending on tooling and feed parameters.
