2010 FAMUP MCP100 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2010 Famup MCP100 is a 3-axis vertical machining center produced by Famup S.p.A., an Italian machine tool manufacturer known for robust general-purpose VMC designs. The MCP100 is built on a one-piece cast iron base and column structure that provides rigidity and thermal stability suitable for production machining of steel, aluminum, and cast iron workpieces. The spindle accepts ISO40 (CAT40 equivalent) toolholders, ensuring compatibility with standard European and North American 40-taper tooling. Axis travels measure approximately 39.4" (1,000 mm) in X, 20.5" (520 mm) in Y, and 20.5" (520 mm) in Z, covering a broad range of workpiece sizes. The worktable measures approximately 47.2" x 20.5" (1,200 x 520 mm) and features standard T-slots for workholding flexibility. The spindle reaches a maximum speed of 8,000 RPM with a continuous power output of approximately 20 HP (15 kW), suitable for a wide range of cutting materials and strategies. Box way or linear guideway construction depending on build variant provides the required stiffness for heavy roughing operations. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 0i-M CNC control, offering full G-code compatibility, canned cycles, rigid tapping, and tool length compensation. An automatic tool changer typically holds 16 to 24 tools depending on configuration. The overall machine footprint and weight of approximately 13,200 lbs (6,000 kg) reflect a medium-duty platform well suited to European-style general machining and contract manufacturing environments.
