Kern MICRO VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This high-performance vertical machining center features a robust 13.77" x 13.77" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 110 lbs, ensuring stable and precise machining for a wide range of applications. The spindle is equipped with an HSK 25 taper, delivering exceptional rigidity and accuracy for demanding milling, drilling, and grinding tasks. With a maximum spindle speed of 35,000 RPM (optionally up to 50,000 RPM) and a 30-minute power rating of 8.0 HP, the machine is engineered for high-speed, high-efficiency operations. Tooling is managed by an automatic tool changer (ATC) system, supporting up to 20 tools (expandable to 209), with a rapid chip-to-chip tool change time of just 4.5 seconds, maximizing productivity. The machine offers 3-axis travel (expandable to 5-axis), with X, Y, and Z travels of 13.78", 8.66", and 9.84" respectively, and rapid traverse rates of 1,179 ipm on all linear axes. Rotary axes provide A-axis movement up to 220° and B-axis rotation up to 360°, enabling complex multi-sided machining. The system supports optional pallet changing for increased automation and throughput. Designed for precision and versatility, this machining center is ideal for high-speed, high-accuracy production environments requiring reliable performance and rapid tool changes.
