Kafo VMC 2185 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical CNC machining center features a robust 94.48" x 39.3" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 6,600 lbs, enabling heavy-duty and large-scale machining operations. It is equipped with a vertical spindle featuring a standardized CAT#50 taper, providing superior rigidity and stability for heavy cutting forces typical in demanding applications. The spindle operates up to 4,000 RPM as standard, with an optional upgrade to 6,000 RPM, and is powered by a 20 HP motor rated for 30-minute operation to deliver consistent and powerful machining performance. The machine features a 30-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) with an optional capacity increase to 40 tools, facilitating efficient tool management and rapid changes without manual intervention. Its three linear axes offer substantial travel lengths of 85.0" (X), 39.4" (Y), and 31.5" (Z), each capable of rapid traverse speeds up to 472 inches per minute and maximum feed rates of 157 inches per minute, ensuring high productivity and precision across complex 3D machining tasks. The combination of heavy load capacity, high spindle power, and extensive travel axes supports diverse milling, drilling, tapping, and boring operations on large-scale workpieces with demanding tolerance requirements. The CAT50 spindle taper aligns with industry standards for steep taper interfaces, optimized for heavy-duty roughing and finishing processes with excellent tool retention and minimal runout, enhancing machining accuracy and tool life. Overall, this machine is designed for precision, rigidity, and efficiency in high-capacity vertical machining applications.
