LK Machinery MV-1680 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust worktable measuring 72.000 inches in length by 19.700 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 770 lbs. An optional support index table and rotary table are available for enhanced versatility. The vertical spindle utilizes a CAT-40 taper, with a maximum speed of 10,000 rpm (optionally up to 15,000 rpm) and a 30-minute power rating of 10 hp (optionally 15 hp), ensuring high performance for demanding machining tasks. Tooling is managed by a 24-pocket arm-type automatic tool changer, delivering rapid tool change times of 1.5 seconds and chip-to-chip times of 4.0 seconds. A standard 2-pallet changer further increases productivity by minimizing downtime between setups. The machine operates on three primary axes (with an optional fourth axis), providing X-axis travel of 25.600 inches (optionally 66.100 inches), Y-axis travel of 19.700 inches, and Z-axis travel of 23.000 inches. Maximum feed rates reach 400 inches per minute, while rapid traverse speeds achieve up to 1,890 inches per minute across all axes, enabling fast and precise movement for efficient machining cycles. This configuration delivers a balance of speed, accuracy, and flexibility for a wide range of milling applications.
