EMAG VLC 500 CM VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The EMAG VLC 500 CM is a high-performance vertical machining center designed for complex and precision machining tasks. It features an X-axis travel of 45.5 inches (1,155.7 mm) and a Z-axis travel of 23 inches (584.2 mm), providing ample working range for large and medium-sized components. Powered by a robust 133.1 hp (approximately 99.2 kW) spindle, it delivers a maximum spindle speed of 400 RPM, suitable for heavy-duty turning, drilling, milling, and grinding operations. The machine is CNC-controlled, ensuring precise, programmable multi-axis machining with integrated automation options for enhanced productivity and repeatability. The VLC 500 CM accommodates complex geometries and tight tolerances, supporting multi-functional machining in a single setup. It typically supports advanced tooling configurations, including up to 96 tools for turning, drilling, milling, and grinding processes, enabled through tool turrets with multiple positions (e.g., Capto C8 / VDI 60) and optional indexing chucks. The machine's rigid construction and fluid-cooled assemblies maintain accuracy and tool life during soft and hard machining operations. Its compact footprint and modular design allow integration into automated production lines with options like central feeding and pick-and-place units. The VLC 500 CM is optimized for machining medium to large chucked components with diameters up to 500 mm and is widely used in industries requiring high precision, such as automotive, aerospace, and heavy machinery manufacturing.
