Technical Description
This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 36.2 inches in length by 17.1 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,323 lbs. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle utilizing a Big Plus #40 taper, delivering high rigidity and precision for demanding milling operations. Spindle speeds reach up to 8,000 RPM standard, with an optional upgrade to 12,000 RPM, and a 30-minute HP rating of 20.0, ensuring sustained performance during intensive cutting cycles. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 30 tools, expandable to 40, and rapid tool change times of 1.3 seconds (tool-to-tool) and 3.7 seconds (chip-to-chip), maximizing productivity. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for enhanced versatility. Axis travels are 30.0 inches (X), 17.1 inches (Y), and 20.1 inches (Z), supporting a wide range of part sizes. Maximum feed rates are 590 inches per minute, and rapid traverse rates reach 1,417 inches per minute across all axes, enabling fast and efficient machining. Rotary table support is available as an option, while a pallet changer can be added for further automation. The design emphasizes precision, speed, and flexibility, making it suitable for high-performance CNC milling applications in diverse industrial environments.
