Technical Description
This CNC vertical machining center features a **39" x 15" work table** capable of supporting workpieces up to **3,200 lbs**, accommodating heavy-duty machining operations. The machine is equipped with a **vertical spindle** incorporating a **CAT #40 BIG-PLUS taper**, which ensures simultaneous contact between the spindle taper and face, substantially improving tool rigidity, reducing deflection, and enhancing machining precision and surface finish. The spindle operates with a top speed of **10,000 RPM** and delivers **15 HP output (30-minute rating)**, suited for various machining tasks requiring both power and precision.
The tool handling system utilizes a **24-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) with dual-arm configuration**, optimizing tool change times and productivity. Optional support tables and rotary tables, as well as a pallet changer, provide additional flexibility for complex or multi-stage operations.
The machine provides **3-axis control (X, Y, and Z)**, with travel distances of **30" (X), 16" (Y), and 20" standard to 26" optional (Z)**, all capable of rapid traverses up to **1400 ipm** and maximum feed rates of **790 ipm**. This configuration ensures efficient, precise machining across multiple dimensions, suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
Overall, the combination of the robust CAT #40 BIG-PLUS spindle system, substantial table capacity, high spindle horsepower, and versatile tooling capabilities make this machining center ideal for high-rigidity, precision-demanding manufacturing environments involving heavy and complex workpieces.
