HWACHEON VT 550 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 25.6 inches and turning length capacity up to 27.5 inches, supported by a 15-inch diameter chuck and a maximum swing of 32.2 inches, enabling machining of large cylindrical parts. The main spindle delivers 60 HP and operates up to 1,500 RPM, ensuring sufficient power and speed for a variety of materials and cutting operations. Equipped with a 12-tool turret, the vertical machining center supports a maximum of one simultaneous cutting tool, allowing efficient tool changes and versatile machining. A rotary tool with 10 HP power and 1,500 RPM speed is included for auxiliary milling or drilling operations. The machine operates on two linear axes, X and Z, with travels of 13.7 inches and 31.1 inches respectively, and rapid traverse rates up to 787 inches per minute on all rapid axes including Y, which is useful for secondary operations or tooling. The X-axis controls diameter movement while the Z-axis handles lengthwise travel along the workpiece, typical of a 2-axis CNC vertical machining center setup designed for precision turning of symmetrical parts. High rapid traverse rates enhance cycle times and productivity. This configuration makes the vertical machining center suitable for medium to large-sized workpieces requiring high power, good reach, and versatility with a moderate tool capacity in 2-axis CNC turning applications.
