HITACHI SEIKI VK-45 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust worktable measuring 44" x 19" with a substantial load capacity of 1650 lbs, ensuring stable support for large and heavy workpieces. The machine offers 30" of X-axis travel, 18" of Y-axis travel, and 18" of Z-axis travel, providing a generous machining envelope suitable for a wide range of part sizes. The spindle utilizes a CT 40 taper for secure tool holding and compatibility with industry-standard tooling. Spindle speed ranges from 60 to 6000 rpm, allowing for versatile machining across various materials and cutting strategies. The 7.5 HP spindle motor delivers ample power for demanding milling operations, including heavy material removal and precision finishing. Cutting feed rates are adjustable from 0.04 to 200 inches per minute, enabling fine control over machining parameters for optimal surface finish and tool life. Rapid traverse is set at 590 inches per minute, enhancing productivity by minimizing non-cutting time. The machine is equipped with a 20-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), streamlining tool changes and reducing downtime during complex jobs. Designed for high accuracy and repeatability, this CNC mill is ideal for applications requiring precision, efficiency, and reliability in both prototyping and production environments.
