Technical Description
This CNC machining center features a 5-axis configuration with X, Y, Z linear travels of 30.000", 18.000", and 22.000" respectively, and a rotary A-axis rotating 220°. The vertical spindle uses a CAT 40 taper (optionally BT 40) capable of speeds up to 8,500 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 12,000 RPM. It delivers 25 HP (30-minute rating), providing substantial power for demanding milling tasks. The work table measures 31.5" x 16.5", with an optional compact size of 8" x 8", supporting workpieces up to 2,500 lbs, ideal for heavy-duty machining without rotary or index tables for added support. Tooling is managed via a 24-tool Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) with a rapid tool change time of 3 seconds, maximizing productivity. Axes have a maximum feed rate of 900 ipm and rapid traverse of 1,200 ipm on X, Y, and Z, ensuring fast and precise movements. The absence of U-axis and pallet changer options streamlines setup for complex 5-axis simultaneous machining. This machine is suited for high-precision applications requiring rigid construction, high power, and versatile 5-axis motion, making it optimal for aerospace, automotive, and die/mold manufacturing where large, heavy workpieces and complex geometries demand efficient, flexible milling solutions.
