DN Solutions VM 960 (L) VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 78.7" x 37.4" (optionally up to 102.4" x 37.4") capable of supporting workpieces up to 8,818 lbs, ideal for heavy and large-scale machining tasks. It is equipped with a #50 taper vertical spindle delivering 40.2 HP (30-minute rating) with a standard top speed of 6,000 RPM, upgradeable to 12,000 RPM for enhanced cutting performance. The machine employs a 30-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) with a rapid 3-second tool change cycle, and an optional pallet changer is available to boost productivity and reduce downtime. The machine is designed with three axes of movement (X, Y, Z), with travels of 78.7" (X, extendable to 94.5"), 37.8" (Y), and 31.5" (Z). Each axis supports a maximum feed rate of 315 inches per minute and a rapid traverse speed of 630 inches per minute, facilitating efficient and precise machining operations. The machine lacks a U axis and offers an optional fourth axis for increased versatility. Its construction and capabilities make it suitable for machining large, heavy components requiring high precision and flexibility, commonly used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and heavy machinery manufacturing. This vertical machining center balances substantial machining capacity, high spindle power, and rapid tool handling to enable efficient production of complex parts.
