GROMAX V3EC MAXIMILL VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a CAT #40 spindle taper with a maximum spindle speed of 6,000 RPM and a 7.50 HP motor, delivering robust performance for precision machining operations. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 660 lbs on its 36" × 14" table, making it suitable for mid-range production and job shop applications. The three-axis design provides 26" of X-axis travel, 16" of Y-axis travel, and 16" of Z-axis travel (expandable to 20"), enabling versatile part geometries and deep cavity work. Equipped with a 10-pocket automatic tool changer (ATC), the machine streamlines production by minimizing tool changeover time. Feed rates reach 160 ipm across all axes, while rapid traverse speeds of 200 ipm enhance efficiency during non-cutting moves. The CAT #40 taper, featuring a 7/24 taper angle, provides precise tool positioning and secure retention, delivering reduced tool chatter and improved concentricity for dimensional accuracy. This configuration makes the machine well-suited for prototype development, precision component manufacturing, and secondary operations on aerospace, medical device, and automotive parts. The standard pallet changer availability enhances flexibility for multi-part production runs, allowing quick workpiece transitions without manual intervention.
