GANESH VMC-2818 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a compact three-axis configuration with X, Y, and Z travel distances of 27.95, 17.71, and 20.08 inches respectively, making it suitable for mid-range production work and job shop applications. The machine is equipped with a CAT 40 spindle taper, which utilizes ASME B5.50 standard specifications and provides a taper angle of 7/24 degrees, ensuring precise tool positioning and reduced chatter for high-quality machining results. The spindle operates at a maximum speed of 8,000 RPM with a 15 HP motor, offering adequate power for various cutting operations across different materials. Control is managed by a FANUC 0i CNC system, which delivers reliable performance with industry-leading Mean Time Between Failure rates and supports up to 4 simultaneously controlled axes. The machine incorporates a standard coolant system for efficient chip evacuation and tool lubrication. With an automatic tool changer capacity of 16 tools, the system enables extended unattended operation and rapid tool changes, enhancing productivity for diverse machining tasks. The approximate weight of 11,000 pounds reflects the machine's rigid construction, necessary for maintaining dimensional accuracy and stability during cutting operations. This configuration represents a versatile platform suitable for precision milling, contouring, and general machining applications in manufacturing environments requiring dependable performance and ease of operation.
