FOCASEIKI VMC 1800 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Focaseiki VMC 1800 Vertical Machining Center is engineered for high precision and heavy-duty machining with an expansive travel of 70.87 inches (X-axis), 39.37 inches (Y-axis), and 31.5 inches (Z-axis). Its large work table measures 39.37 inches in width by 74.8 inches in length, supporting heavy and sizable workpieces efficiently. The machine features rapid traverse rates of 24 m/min for the X and Y axes and 20 m/min for the Z axis, enabling faster cycle times. Equipped with a low-speed, high-torque spindle motor with an ISO 50 taper, it offers spindle speeds up to 6000 rpm, expandable with gear or direct transmission options. The Z axis incorporates a servo motor brake system and dual cylinders for counterbalance, enhancing performance and stability during vertical movement. High-precision C3 grade ball screws (63 mm diameter) and heavy-loading linear guideways (55 mm) across all axes ensure rigidity and accuracy. The machine’s robust construction supports a maximum table load of up to 2500 kg, with NSK roller-type slide blocks on the Y axis for added stability. Tool changing is facilitated by an automatic tool changer with up to 24 tools and quick tool-to-tool change times. The coolant system includes a large capacity tank (~700 L) ensuring efficient heat dissipation. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 4970 mm (L) x 4750 mm (W) x 3470 mm (H), weighing around 18,000 kg, making it suitable for demanding industrial applications requiring large work volumes and high machining precision.
