MANFORD VM760 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The MANFORD VM760 Vertical Machining Center is a robust CNC machine designed for high-precision milling operations. It features a generous work envelope with X-axis travel of 30 inches (760 mm), Y-axis travel of 16 inches (400 mm), and Z-axis travel of 16 inches (400 mm), enabling the machining of medium to large workpieces. The machine is equipped with a 7.5 hp high-torque spindle capable of reaching speeds up to 6,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and excellent surface finishes. The spindle is directly driven by a timing belt, minimizing slippage and vibration while maximizing reliability and accuracy. The table measures 50 inches in length and 12 inches in width (1270 x 305 mm), providing ample space for fixturing and part setup. Precision-ground C5 ballscrews and linear guide ways on all axes deliver high-speed, high-accuracy performance, while P4 angular contact spindle bearings help maintain thermal stability and minimize runout. The VM760 is controlled by a Fanuc Oi-MC CNC system, offering advanced programming capabilities, intuitive operation, and seamless integration with modern manufacturing workflows. The control supports conversational programming, high-speed machining cycles, and integrated safety functions for enhanced productivity and operator safety. This machining center is suitable for a wide range of applications, including tool room milling, prototyping, and production machining, making it a versatile solution for demanding manufacturing environments.
