FEMCO MCV-300 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This is a 3-axis CNC vertical machining center equipped with a CT-40 spindle taper and 10 horsepower motor, delivering 8,000 RPM for versatile machining capabilities. The machine features a 10-station automatic tool changer (ATC) enabling rapid tool changes to optimize production efficiency and reduce operator intervention. The CT-40 taper, characterized by a 7/24 taper angle, provides excellent rigidity and versatility suitable for a broad range of machining applications on metals and plastics. With three linear axes (X, Y, and Z), this vertical configuration offers standard precision machining along horizontal and vertical planes, with the spindle positioned vertically above the workpiece for optimal visibility and accessibility. The machine accommodates workpiece positioning and tool selection through its computerized control system, compatible with CNC programming standards. Compact dimensions of 72.8" length × 71.9" width × 94.5" height make it suitable for shop environments with space constraints while maintaining structural rigidity through its cast iron bed design. The 10 hp spindle power enables efficient material removal across various workpiece materials and thicknesses. This configuration represents a mid-range production tool ideal for job shops, prototype development, and small-to-medium batch manufacturing operations. The machine's specifications balance power, precision, and accessibility, making it practical for diverse industrial applications requiring repeatable accuracy and operational flexibility within a compact footprint.
