Kao Ming KMC-6000 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a large worktable measuring 235.2 inches in length by 49.2 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 22,000 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty machining applications. It operates on a 3-axis system (X, Y, Z) with travels of 245.0", 55.1", and 27.6" respectively, enabling extensive machining envelope with rapid traverse rates of 275 inches per minute and maximum feed rates of 196 inches per minute along all axes. The spindle is vertically oriented with a CAT#50 taper (optionally BT#50) designed for robust tool holding and high machining rigidity. It offers a top speed of 5,200 RPM and is powered by a 20 HP motor with an optional upgrade to 25 HP, allowing for demanding cutting operations. The tool changer is an automatic type (ATC) with a standard capacity of 30 tools and an optional increase to 60 tools, facilitating flexible and efficient tool management. The tool change chip time is effectively zero seconds, optimizing cycle times. No U-axis or pallet changer is included, focusing on vertical machining center functionality with emphasis on large part capacity and spindle power. The machine’s combination of a heavy-duty table, powerful spindle, and broad axis travels supports machining large and heavy workpieces with substantial precision and productivity for a variety of industrial manufacturing processes.
