Kaast V-MILL 1100 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a 51.2" x 23.6" (L x W) work table capable of supporting workpieces up to 2,200 lbs, designed for heavy and precise milling tasks. It utilizes a vertical spindle with a BT40 taper (optional CAT40) supporting top speeds up to 10,000 RPM standard or optionally 24,000 RPM, powered by a 15 HP motor rated for 30-minute intervals. The spindle taper choice offers flexibility with BT40 providing symmetrical tooling stability at high speeds and CAT40 available as an alternative. The machine is equipped with an automatic tool changer (ATC) supporting 20 tools standard, expandable to 32 tools for increased productivity. It operates with 3 axes (X, Y, Z travels of 43.3", 27.6", and 24" respectively) capable of maximum feed rates of 394 inches per minute and rapid traverse rates of 945 inches per minute, ensuring efficient material removal and positioning speed. No built-in pallet changer or U axis is included, but rotary table support is optional to enable 4-axis capability. The machine’s robust structure and tooling options make it suitable for complex machining operations demanding high precision and throughput in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and tooling manufacturing. Overall, it balances large work capacity, high spindle power, flexible tooling management, and rapid axis movement in a versatile CNC milling solution.
