A 24-tool side-mount twin-arm automatic tool changer enables efficient unattended production cycles, and rapid traverse rates are 944 IPM on X and Y and 590 IPM on Z. Spindle nose-to-table distance ranges from 5.5 to 27.6 inches. Machine control is via a Fanuc 21-M with integrated PMC-M ladder-logic controller. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 114 by 103 by 105 inches, and machine weight is approximately 13,400 lbs. The PMC10T24 is the flagship model in the Excel VMC lineup, offering the largest work envelope in the series with robust construction for demanding production environments.
