LEADWELL V-40IT 5 AXIS VMC VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The LEADWELL V-40IT is a high-performance 5-axis vertical machining center designed for precision and efficiency in complex part production. Featuring a robust, rigid structure with roller-type guide ways and 3-axis ball screw prestressing, the machine ensures superior stability, accuracy, and reduced vibration during high-speed operations. The X, Y, and Z-axis travels measure 40", 25", and 19.2" respectively, providing a generous work envelope suitable for a wide range of workpieces, with a maximum work-piece size of 33" x 24" diameter x 12" height. The spindle utilizes a CAT-40 taper and delivers a maximum speed of 12,000 RPM, powered by a 25 HP motor for high torque and rapid material removal. Rapid traverse rates reach 1417 IPM across all linear axes, enhancing productivity and minimizing non-cutting time. The machine is equipped with a 24-station arm-type automatic tool changer (ATC), enabling quick and efficient tool changes to support diverse machining operations. The table-to-spindle distance ranges from 1.9" to 21.5", allowing flexibility in fixture and workpiece setup. Advanced features include Fagor 8065 CNC control, a high-pressure coolant ring, chip conveyor with built-in auger, and options for 4th and 5th axis rotary tables. The V-40IT’s design emphasizes high rigidity, reliability, and flexibility, making it ideal for demanding applications in aerospace, automotive, and mold industries where complex geometries and tight tolerances are required.
