LK MACHINERY BTC-550 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The LK MACHINERY BTC-550 Vertical Machining Center is a high-performance CNC machine designed for precision milling of molds and general parts. It features a robust 3-axis configuration with X, Y, and Z-axis travels of 21.65 inches (550 mm), 15.75 inches (400 mm), and 16.54 inches (420 mm), respectively, providing a generous working envelope for versatile machining tasks. The table measures 31.5 inches (800 mm) in length and 16.54 inches (420 mm) in width, supporting a maximum load of 200 kg, making it suitable for a wide range of workpieces. The machine is equipped with a direct-driven spindle capable of speeds up to 12,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and fine surface finishes. The spindle nose is BT-30 (CAT-30), compatible with standard tooling, and the spindle motor delivers reliable power for continuous operation. Rapid traverse rates of 48 m/min on all axes enable fast positioning and reduced cycle times. The BTC-550 utilizes a 20-tool arm-type automatic tool changer for quick and accurate tool exchanges, enhancing productivity. The control system is CNC, providing precise and flexible programming for complex machining operations. The machine’s rigid structure and linear guideways ensure superior stability and accuracy, while features such as full body enclosure, automatic lubrication, and a tri-color indicator lamp contribute to safe and efficient operation. With a compact footprint and high rigidity, the BTC-550 is ideal for shops requiring reliable, high-speed vertical machining in a space-saving design.
