Manford VL-610 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust work table measuring 31.5" x 17.7" with a maximum workpiece capacity of 880 lbs, suitable for mid-range production and job shop applications. The machine is equipped with a BT 40 spindle taper (CAT 40 optional), capable of speeds up to 8,000 RPM with a 10,000 RPM option, delivering 15 HP at the 30-minute rating for sustained cutting operations. The vertical spindle orientation provides accessibility for programming and part setup. Tool management is handled by a 12-position ATC (Automatic Tool Changer) using Genoa-type tooling, expandable to 20 positions, with optional pallet changer capability for increased production flexibility. The machine operates across three linear axes with travel distances of 24" (X), 18" (Y), and 20" (Z), each achieving maximum feed rates of 394 ipm and rapid traverse speeds of 1,416 ipm for efficient material removal and positioning. Optional support equipment includes index and rotary tables for complex part configurations. The precision positioning and rapid movement capabilities make this machine suitable for milling operations including forming, stamping tool components, injection molding parts, and aerospace applications, while the flexible tooling options accommodate diverse cutting tool requirements for various materials and geometries.
