DN Solutions VC 500 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a 33.8" x 22" indexed work table supporting workpieces up to 660 lbs, with optional rotary table capability. The vertical spindle utilizes a #40 taper, delivering up to 20 HP (30-minute rating) and reaching a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM. Cutting tools are managed via a 30-position automatic tool changer (ATC) with a rapid tool change time of 1.5 seconds and a total chip-to-chip time of 4.5 seconds. A standard pallet changer with two pallets enhances workflow efficiency. The machine operates on a 3-axis system (X, Y, Z) with travel distances of 29.9", 20", and 22.4" respectively, each axis featuring a maximum feed rate of 315 inches per minute and a rapid traverse rate of 1,575 inches per minute. An optional 4th rotary axis (B axis) offers 360 degrees of continuous rotation, expanding machining flexibility. The spindle is vertically oriented, optimized for versatile milling operations ranging from general machining to complex part production. The table’s load capacity and dimensions accommodate medium to large workpieces, making this mill suitable for heavy-duty manufacturing environments. Its combination of high spindle horsepower, fast tool change times, and pallet changer integration supports high-volume, precise machining tasks. This setup ensures reduced cycle times and increased productivity while maintaining accuracy throughout the machining process.
