FRYER CM-15 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC vertical machining center features a compact 3-axis design with a total work envelope of 15 inches (X-axis), 10 inches (Y-axis), and 12 inches (Z-axis), making it suitable for small to medium-sized precision machining operations. The machine is equipped with a robust 5 horsepower spindle capable of rotating at 8,000 RPM, providing adequate torque and cutting speed for machining aluminum, steel, and composite materials. The work table measures 32 inches in length and 10 inches in width, offering sufficient surface area for workpiece clamping and fixturing while maintaining a relatively compact footprint ideal for small workshops and manufacturing facilities. The CNC control system enables automated, computer-programmed machining operations with high repeatability and accuracy, eliminating manual operator input during cutting cycles. This configuration allows for efficient production of various features including holes, slots, pockets, and contoured surfaces. The machine's moderate specifications make it accessible for both educational and commercial applications, balancing capability with affordability. Standard components typically include a tool changer for quick tool changes, precision linear guides ensuring accurate positioning, and ball screws for smooth axis movement. The combination of adequate spindle power, reasonable cutting area, and programmable control makes this machine suitable for prototype development, small-batch production, and general job shop work where versatility and precision are required without demanding heavy-duty material removal capabilities.
