KNUTH VDM 1000 S VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a dual main spindle system, each with a maximum turning diameter of 39.000 inches and a turning length capacity of 31.000 inches, allowing for the machining of large and long workpieces. Both spindles operate at a maximum speed of 250 RPM, delivering 29.50 horsepower each, providing ample power for heavy-duty turning operations. The machine offers three-axis travel capabilities: 26.000 inches on the X axis, 31.000 inches on the Z axis, and unspecified travel on the Y axis, which also supports machining versatility including off-center and complex geometries. The maximum feed rate is 3 inches per minute across X, Y, and Z axes, complemented by a rapid traverse rate of 71 inches per minute for efficient non-cutting moves. These features combine to support precise and efficient turning, milling, or drilling tasks on large cylindrical parts. The substantial spindle horsepower ensures capability for cutting tough materials and large diameters, while the ample axis travel and rapid traverse rates enable flexible work envelope coverage and productivity in handling diverse workpiece sizes. This configuration is well suited for industrial applications requiring consistent power and dimensional accuracy across complex or large components.
