Fryer Machine Systems MC-45 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical spindle CNC machining center is engineered for precision manufacturing with robust capabilities across multiple machining applications. The machine features a spacious 51" × 24" worktable supporting workpieces up to 3,500 lbs, making it suitable for mid-to-large production runs. The standard CAT 40 spindle taper operates at 8,500 RPM with an optional CAT 50 configuration reaching 12,000 RPM, providing flexibility for varying cutting speeds and tool requirements. The 25 HP spindle (30-minute rating) delivers substantial metal removal capacity for both roughing and finishing operations. The three-axis configuration provides 45" X-axis, 25" Y-axis, and 25" Z-axis travel with consistent 900 ipm maximum feed rates and 1,200 ipm rapid traverse speeds across all axes, enabling efficient cycle times and dynamic positioning. The integrated 24-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) facilitates rapid tool exchanges in just 3 seconds, minimizing non-cutting time and increasing throughput. Optional fourth-axis capability and pallet changer functionality (2 pallets) expand production flexibility for complex part geometries and lights-out manufacturing scenarios. The machine's construction prioritizes stability and accuracy for precision work while maintaining the rigidity necessary for production-level cutting forces. Optional support features including rotary and index tables provide configurability for diverse manufacturing requirements. This system represents a capable general-purpose machining center suitable for tool and die work, aerospace components, and diverse industrial applications requiring reliable precision and consistent output.
