Technical Description
The FFG MAG VDF 450 TM is a high-performance horizontal machining center designed for heavy-duty turning and milling applications. It features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 23.6 inches, a maximum turning length of 78.7 inches, and a maximum swing of 27.56 inches. The machine is equipped with a 75 HP main spindle driving at up to 2,800 RPM, optionally enhanced to 135 HP and 3,100 RPM for increased cutting power. It supports dual main spindles, both with identical power and speed capabilities, enabling efficient multi-part machining.
This machine incorporates two tool turrets: a radial turret supporting up to 12 turning and 12 rotary tools, and an axial turret housing up to 12 turning and 6 rotary tools, with rotary tools powered by 17-20 HP spindles running at 3,000 RPM. It has a 5-axis configuration with axes travels of 28.54 inches (X), 11.81 inches standard (Y) with an 18.1-inch option, and 79 inches standard (Z), extendable up to 178 inches.
The machining center offers advanced milling and drilling functions including on-center, off-center, and operations with ‘C’ and ‘Y’ axes, allowing comprehensive, single-setup machining solutions. It supports simultaneous use of one cutting tool, optionally two, maximizing productivity.
Built with a rigid polymer concrete bed and high-quality linear roller guides, the VDF 450 TM guarantees precision and durability under intense machining forces. Its modular design allows customization to specific production needs, making it ideal for medium to large-sized workpieces in industries such as automotive, powertrain, pump manufacturing, and general shaft machining.
