EXPAND MACHINERY GMB-2616 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust 48.000" x 12.000" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 880 lbs, providing a stable platform for precision machining. The vertical spindle is equipped with a #40 taper and delivers a maximum speed of 8,000 RPM, powered by a 7.5 HP motor (30-minute rating), ensuring efficient material removal and high performance for a wide range of milling applications. Tooling is manually loaded, supporting a single tool at a time, which is ideal for operations requiring frequent tool changes or specialized setups. The machine operates on four axes, offering X, Y, and Z linear travels of 25.790", 15.740", and 5.000" respectively, enabling versatile part positioning and multi-directional machining. The absence of a U-axis indicates a focus on standard three-dimensional milling tasks. The design incorporates hardened steel guide ways for durability and accuracy, with mechanical limit switches on each axis for safety and precise travel control. The machine's construction emphasizes rigidity and vibration resistance, supporting close tolerances and high-quality surface finishes. An independent main drive and feed drive system ensures smooth operation, while a centralized lubrication system maintains optimal performance of all moving parts. This configuration is well-suited for both prototyping and production environments, delivering reliable results for small to medium-sized components.
