FOM INDUSTRIE ARGO 40 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center operates on 380/460V, 60Hz electrical supply with 13.41 hp total installed power and 596.5 hours on the meter. The machine features three-axis linear travel capabilities of 4.150 ft (X-axis), 3.61 ft (Y-axis), and 1.4 ft (Z-axis), with rapid traverse rates of 0.328 ft/min, 0.197 ft/min, and 0.098 ft/min respectively. The electro-spindle delivers 5.36 hp at a maximum rotation speed of 12,000 rpm with 4.79 ft-lb maximum torque, enabling high-speed finishing operations. Positioning precision is ± 0.0051 inches with repeatability precision of ± 0.0028 inches, ensuring tight tolerance manufacturing. The automatic tool changer accommodates six tools with maximum individual weights of 13.23 lb, lengths of 4.88 inches, and diameters of 8.66 inches, achieving tool replacement in 8 seconds for efficient production cycles. Pneumatic requirements include 0.95 ft³/min for cone cleaning, 1.57 ft³/min per cycle, and 7.06 ft³/min continuous consumption for electrospindle cooling at 101.53 psi working pressure. The machine measures 18.6' × 6.2' × 8.1' (61.4 ft³) and weighs 5,433.07 lb, providing substantial rigidity for precision component manufacturing across various industries including aerospace, tooling, and medical device production.
