JOHNFORD SV-41 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The JOHNFORD SV-41 is a versatile vertical machining center engineered for precision metalworking and mold production applications. This three-axis machine features generous work envelope dimensions with 41.34 inches of X-travel, 24.02 inches of Y-travel, and 24.02 inches of Z-travel, accommodating diverse part geometries. The robust table measures 47.24 by 23.62 inches and supports substantial workpieces with excellent rigidity. The spindle delivers 14.75 horsepower at speeds reaching 10,000 RPM with BT/CAT-40 taper compatibility, making it suitable for high-speed cutting operations and finishing work. The machine incorporates a 24-position automatic tool changer (ATC) for efficient tool management and reduced cycle times. Control is managed by a FANUC 0i-MD CNC system, which provides advanced interpolation capabilities, simultaneous control of up to 4 axes, and comprehensive operational features including rigid tapping, backlash compensation, and multiple feed modes. The FANUC 0i-MD controller supports digital servo functions with 0.001mm input increment precision and includes automatic data backup functionality. Standard equipment typically encompasses flood coolant systems with programmable air blast, spindle oil coolers, full machine enclosure, auto-lubrication with alarms, and remote handwheel operation. The SV-41's combination of structural rigidity, precision spindle, rapid positioning capabilities, and flexible CNC control makes it an ideal choice for job shops and manufacturing facilities requiring reliable high-precision machining for both production and prototype work.
