Kira KDM 52VL VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC vertical machining center features a worktable size of 43.31" (L) x 20.47" (W) and supports a maximum workpiece weight of 1,323 lbs, enabling heavy-duty machining. It is equipped with a vertical spindle using a BBT40 taper standard, capable of reaching a top speed of 8,000 RPM (optionally up to 10,000 RPM). The spindle motor delivers 20 HP rated for 30 minutes, supporting high power and torque for demanding cutting operations. Tool handling is managed by an Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 30 tools, expandable to 40, facilitating rapid tool swaps with a typical change time of 1.3 seconds and chip-to-chip time of 3.9 seconds. The machine operates on a 3-axis configuration, with travels in X, Y, and Z axes of 40.16", 20.47", and 20.08" respectively, and rapid traverse rates of 1,417 inches per minute on all axes, ensuring high-speed material removal and precision positioning. An optional pallet changer is available for enhanced workpiece handling automation. The BBT40 spindle system ensures high rigidity and machining accuracy through dual-contact taper and face clamping, contributing to improved tool life and precision in cutting operations. Overall, this configuration is optimized for medium to heavy milling tasks requiring robust capacity, precise control, and efficient tool management in industrial manufacturing environments.
