Technical Description
This CNC machining center features an 18.5 kW spindle power delivering up to 4,500 RPM, driven by a robust BT-50/CAT-50 taper spindle designed for heavy-duty machining. It includes a 24-tool Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) enabling efficient tool swaps during operations. The worktable measures 29.5 inches in width and 59.1 inches in length, providing a substantial surface for fixed or movable workpieces, supporting three-axis machining (X, Y, Z) for precise spatial control. The CNC control is powered by a FANUC 0i-MD system, known for its high reliability and precision, capable of finely controlling servo motors with increments as small as 0.001 mm, supporting features like automatic data backup, interpolation control, and advanced feed/rapid traverse management. The unit’s physical dimensions are 144 inches long, 177 inches wide, and 110 inches high, indicating a heavy industrial machine footprint suitable for large-scale manufacturing environments. The combination of a high-torque spindle, substantial tooling capacity, and a large robust worktable positions this machine as ideal for complex, high-precision milling tasks in aerospace, automotive, and heavy machinery manufacturing. The FANUC 0i-MD controller supports up to three simultaneous axes control with digital servo drives, enabling smooth acceleration, deceleration, and complex contouring. Overall, this configuration balances power, precision, and efficiency for demanding milling operations requiring long tool life and rapid processing cycles.
