2015 FEELER VB1100 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2015 FEELER VB1100 is a 3-axis vertical machining center from Fair Friend Group's FEELER brand, built on the heavy-duty VB box-way platform designed for demanding metal cutting applications including die and mold, aerospace structural components, and large precision parts. The VB1100 employs full box-way guideways on all axes for maximum rigidity and vibration damping under heavy interrupted cuts, enabling sustained material removal rates in steel, cast iron, and titanium that would exceed the capability of linear-guideway machines. The CAT50 spindle operates at up to 8,000 RPM with 25 HP continuous power, providing the torque characteristics required for large-diameter face milling, heavy boring, and deep pocketing. The 1,300 x 600 mm worktable accommodates substantial workpieces with a maximum table load of 1,000 kg, across axis travels of 1,100 mm X, 610 mm Y, and 600 mm Z. A 30-tool ATC supports complex multi-operation machining cycles. The FANUC 0i-MD CNC provides G-code, FANUC macro B, and comprehensive machining cycle support. The VB1100's heavy-base, box-way construction is particularly well-suited to die shops, mold manufacturers, and heavy industrial parts producers requiring consistent accuracy and finish quality under aggressive cutting parameters. FEELER's VB series represents a cost-effective alternative to comparable Japanese and European box-way machining centers.
