Fidia DIGIT 218 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This high-performance vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 98.000 inches in length by 59.000 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 22,000 lbs, making it ideal for heavy-duty machining applications. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle featuring a #40 taper, offering a maximum speed of 24,000 RPM (with an optional upgrade to 30,000 RPM) and a 30-minute horsepower rating of 32 HP (optional 27 HP), ensuring high-speed precision and versatility. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 20 tools, expandable to 42 tools, and rapid tool change chip time for increased productivity. The machine supports optional index and rotary tables, as well as a pallet changer, allowing for flexible workholding and automation. It operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z) with optional expansion to five axes (A, B), providing extensive machining flexibility. Axis travels are 78.740 inches (X), 39.370 inches (Y), and 31.500 inches (Z), with maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds of 787 inches per minute across all three axes, enabling fast and accurate material removal. The A-axis offers 105.000° rotation, and the B-axis provides full 360.000° rotation, supporting complex multi-sided machining. This vertical machining center is engineered for high accuracy, rigidity, and efficiency in demanding production environments.
