Knuth X.MILL 640 ECO SI VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust vertical spindle with a BT 40 taper, delivering a maximum spindle speed of 10,000 RPM and a 30-minute power rating of 14.8 HP, with an optional continuous rating of 10.06 HP. The worktable measures 30.000 inches in length by 14.000 inches in width, supporting workpieces up to 1,100 lbs. The machine is equipped with a 12-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), enabling rapid tool changes in just 7 seconds (chip-to-chip in 9 seconds), enhancing productivity for complex machining operations. The three-axis configuration provides X, Y, and Z travels of 25.200", 16.000", and 20.000" respectively, with a maximum feed rate of 197 IPM and rapid traverse speeds of 1,417 IPM on all axes, ensuring efficient and precise material removal. The machine supports optional index and rotary tables for expanded workholding flexibility, as well as an optional pallet changer for increased automation. The vertical spindle and BT 40 taper are compatible with a wide range of standard tooling, while the high-speed, high-torque spindle design is suitable for demanding milling applications across various materials. The combination of large worktable capacity, high spindle power, rapid tool changing, and precise axis control makes this machine ideal for high-volume and high-accuracy CNC milling tasks.
