KAAST V-TURN 550 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter and length of 21.7 inches, complemented by a 12-inch chuck diameter and a maximum swing of 29.5 inches, enabling the machining of moderately large workpieces. It operates at up to 2,500 RPM, driven by a 25 HP motor, providing sufficient power for various medium-duty turning applications. The machine supports up to 12 tools in its turret, though only one tool can engage in simultaneous cutting, suitable for standard 2-axis turning operations. The vertical machining center has two linear axes: an X axis with 10.8 inches of travel for radial tool movement and a Z axis with 21.7 inches of travel for longitudinal tool positioning, facilitating precise control over workpiece dimensions. It achieves high productivity with a maximum feed rate and rapid traverse speed of 780 inches per minute, optimizing cycle times without sacrificing accuracy. This setup is ideal for producing symmetrical components requiring high repeatability and precision within the X and Z axes. The combination of spindle power, axis travel, and tool capacity positions this vertical machining center as a versatile solution for general turning tasks including roughing and finishing operations on a range of metals and materials. Its specification aligns with standard 2-axis CNC vertical machining center configurations, focusing on efficient turning of cylindrical parts with moderate complexity.
