EMAG VLC 100 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This is a compact 2-axis CNC vertical machining center designed for precision turning operations on small to medium-sized components. The machine features a maximum turning diameter of 4.000 inches and a maximum turning length of 6.000 inches, making it suitable for producing round shapes with both outer and inner diameter specifications. The 6.500-inch chuck diameter provides secure workpiece clamping, while the 8.500-inch maximum swing capacity accommodates slightly larger billets during initial setup. With a single main spindle and one simultaneous cutting tool in the standard configuration, the vertical machining center operates on two primary linear axes—the X-axis controlling radial tool movement and the Z-axis managing longitudinal positioning. The X-axis travel of 25.500 inches and Z-axis travel of 15.000 inches provide adequate workspace for part manipulation. Optional configurations upgrade the machine to 3-axis capability, enabling off-center milling operations and enhanced geometric complexity through the addition of a Y-axis or C-axis functionality. The optional second simultaneous cutting tool capability reduces cycle times by allowing concurrent machining operations. This vertical machining center configuration represents a fundamental CNC turning platform ideal for precision component production in applications requiring tight tolerances and consistent repeatability, particularly suited for small-batch manufacturing, prototyping, and general precision turning work across aerospace, medical device, and automotive sectors.
