JOHNFORD - ROUNDTOP MACHINERY COMPANY VCL-2000 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This heavy-duty CNC vertical machining center is engineered for large-scale precision turning operations with exceptional power and capacity. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 78.740 inches in maximum turning diameter and 25.600 inches in length, making it suitable for substantial cylindrical components. The 63-inch chuck diameter provides secure material clamping for high-torque applications. Operating at 180 RPM with 35 horsepower, this vertical machining center delivers significant spindle torque for demanding machining tasks such as turning castings, forgings, and large-diameter features. The machine features a 2-axis control system (X and Z axes), with X-axis travel of 49.210 inches and Z-axis travel matching the maximum turning length at 25.600 inches. The tool configuration supports up to 8 total tools with 2 simultaneous cutting tools, enabling efficient multi-operation machining without frequent tool changes. With a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse speed of 394 inches per minute, the machine balances speed with the controlled removal rates necessary for large-scale work. This configuration targets production environments requiring heavy material removal capabilities while maintaining CNC repeatability and precision, ideal for aerospace, automotive, and industrial component manufacturing where tight tolerances and robust power are essential.
