JOHNFORD VMC-2000SHD VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The JOHNFORD VMC-2000SHD is a high-performance vertical machining center designed for precision and heavy-duty machining tasks. It is powered by an 18.5 kW motor, delivering spindle speeds up to 4,500 RPM, suitable for a wide range of materials and cutting conditions. The machine features a robust BT/CAT-50 taper spindle and a 40-position automatic tool changer (ATC), enabling efficient operation and reduced cycle times. Its large worktable measures 1,000.8 mm in width and 2,199.6 mm in length, accommodating sizable workpieces and enabling complex machining operations with a three-axis CNC control system. The CNC controller is a FANUC 0i-MD, noted for advanced digital servo control, fine acceleration and deceleration, and multiple programming features that support precise tool path control and programmable feedrate overrides. This controller also supports simultaneous axis control and offers high reliability and user-friendly operation. The machine’s overall footprint measures 216" x 210" x 130" and weighs 44,000 lbs, reflecting its solid construction for vibration dampening and stability during machining. With advanced CNC features, large work capacity, and a versatile spindle and tool changer setup, the VMC-2000SHD is well-suited for industrial applications requiring consistent accuracy, heavy material removal, and flexible manufacturing capabilities.
