2014 FRYER MC60 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2014 Fryer MC60 is a 3-axis vertical machining center manufactured by Fryer Machine Systems of Patterson, New York. The MC60 is a large-format VMC in Fryer's MC Series, providing a 60-inch X-axis travel suited to long workpieces requiring precision milling in a single setup. The machine delivers X, Y, and Z travels of 60, 30, and 28 inches respectively, with a 24 x 67-inch worktable supporting up to 4,500 lbs. The CAT-40 spindle operates at 60 to 8,500 RPM with 30 HP peak power, providing effective cutting performance for steel, aluminum, and engineering alloys. A 24-station arm-type automatic tool changer enables complex multi-tool setups. Rapid traverse rates of 1,200 IPM in X/Y and 900 IPM in Z maximize throughput on long workpieces. CNC motion control is provided by the Fryer/Siemens 828-HS system. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 161 x 112 inches with a height of 112 inches, and the machine weighs approximately 20,000 lbs. The MC60 is particularly well suited to aerospace structural parts, long mold bases, production fixtures, and energy sector components requiring extended X-axis reach and heavy-duty cutting capability in an American-built platform.
