Kaast PORT-MILL 1500 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust vertical spindle configuration with a BT 40 taper, compatible with HSK-A63 as an option, and delivers a maximum spindle speed of 10,000 RPM (upgradable to 24,000 RPM). The spindle is rated at 25 HP for 30 minutes, ensuring high performance for demanding milling operations. The machine is equipped with a 3-axis system (X, Y, Z), offering travel distances of 59.0 inches (X), 31.5 inches (Y), and 19.7 inches (Z), providing ample workspace for large and complex parts. The maximum feed rate and rapid traverse for all axes are both 394 inches per minute, enabling fast and efficient material removal. The worktable measures 67.0 inches in length and 31.0 inches in width, supporting workpieces up to 3,300 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications. Tooling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a capacity of 16 tools, streamlining production and reducing downtime. The machine does not include a support index table or rotary table, focusing on standard 3-axis milling tasks. The design emphasizes rigidity and precision, with high-speed capabilities and a powerful spindle, ideal for a wide range of industrial machining requirements.
