Technical Description
This CNC vertical machining center features a large work table measuring 200.79 inches in length by 86.61 inches in width, engineered to support heavy workpieces up to 44,091 lbs, ideal for substantial machining tasks. The vertical spindle utilizes a BT50 taper, optimized for heavy-duty machining with a top speed of 6,000 RPM (optionally 4,000 RPM), driven by a robust 30 HP (standard) spindle motor with an optional upgrade to 35 HP, providing substantial power for diverse cutting operations. Tooling is facilitated through an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 40 tools, expandable to 120 tools to accommodate high-mix, complex production runs. The machine operates on 4 controlled axes, with no U axis, delivering precise and flexible control across a travel range of 206.69 inches in X, 125.98 inches in Y, and 27.56 inches in Z, with maximum feed rates of 394 inches per minute and rapid traverse speeds reaching 629 inches per minute, ensuring efficient material removal rates and minimized cycle times. The symmetrical BT50 spindle taper offers enhanced rigidity and balance, reducing vibration and tool wear, crucial for maintaining high-precision machining in heavy-duty applications. This configuration supports a wide range of machining operations including milling, drilling, boring, and tapping, suitable for industries requiring large component fabrication such as aerospace, heavy equipment, and mold manufacturing. The machine's design prioritizes structural stability and power to handle large, heavy workpieces with sustained accuracy and productivity.
