Feeler FV-5218 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Feeler FV-5218 is a heavy-duty vertical machining center engineered for demanding industrial applications. Featuring a robust vertical spindle with a #50 ISO taper (optional #40), the machine delivers 35 HP at a standard 6,000 RPM, with an optional high-speed configuration of 15,000 RPM at 30 HP, providing versatility across diverse machining requirements. The expansive work envelope accommodates large components with a 197" × 67" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 33,000 lbs. The three-axis system offers substantial travel distances: 205" on X-axis, 71" standard on Y-axis (expandable to 158"), and 35.4" standard on Z-axis (optional 47.24"), with rapid traverse rates reaching 591 IPM across all axes and cutting feed rates up to 197 IPM. The 32-station automatic tool changer (ATC) with 8-second tool change time ensures efficient production runs, while an optional 120-tool magazine configuration maximizes unattended machining capabilities for complex multi-operation parts. The machine's exceptional work support capacity and generous axis travels make it ideal for aerospace, automotive, and heavy industrial mold and die manufacturing, enabling simultaneous multi-axis contouring with high precision and repeatability for both roughing and finishing operations.
