Fryer Machine Systems VB-80 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This high-performance CNC vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 93.000 inches in length by 30.000 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 5,000 lbs. The machine is equipped with a vertical spindle utilizing a CAT #40 taper, with BT-40 as an optional taper configuration, accommodating a wide range of tooling standards. Spindle speeds reach up to 8,000 RPM as standard, with an optional upgrade to 10,000 RPM, and delivers 25 HP (30-minute rating), with an optional 40 HP for enhanced cutting performance. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) supporting 20 tools as standard, expandable to 24, with rapid tool change times of 3 seconds. The machine operates on 3 axes, with an optional 4th axis for increased versatility. Axis travels are 80.000 inches (X), 35.000 inches (Y), and 26.000 inches (Z), with an optional Z travel of 34.000 inches. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds are 400 IPM and 600 IPM, respectively, across all axes, ensuring efficient material removal and fast cycle times. The machine does not include a support index table or pallet changer, but a rotary table is available as an optional support. This configuration is ideal for precision machining of large, heavy workpieces in demanding industrial applications.
