FFG MAG VDF 400 T HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The FFG MAG VDF 400 T is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for complex turning and milling operations. It features a robust main spindle capable of turning diameters up to 13.77 inches and lengths up to 52 inches, with a maximum chuck diameter of 12 inches and a swing over bed of 27.55 inches. The machine is equipped with dual 75 HP spindles running at up to 2,800 RPM, enabling efficient heavy-duty cutting and high-precision machining. It includes two turrets as primary and secondary tool carriers, each supporting up to 12 tools for both turning and rotary operations, allowing simultaneous use of two cutting tools for greater productivity. The VDF 400 T supports secondary milling and drilling functions on-center, off-center, and with C and Y axes, expanding its multifunctional capabilities. This center operates with six axes, providing X, Y, and Z travels of 6.85", 7.87", and 52" respectively, each with maximum feed and rapid traverse rates of 590 inches per minute, facilitating rapid and precise tool movement. Engineered for versatility and precision, the machine integrates advanced features such as hard and soft turning, tangential turning for lead-free surfaces, and full turn-mill operations in a single setup. Its structural design ensures rigidity and damping suitable for high cutting forces, supporting applications from automotive components like steering knuckles and drive shafts to heavy industrial parts such as railway axles. The modular design provides flexibility for customization and automation integration, maximizing throughput and minimizing cycle times in small to medium batch production environments.
