Technical Description
This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 19.68 x 19.68 inches, optionally expandable to 27.56 x 27.56 inches, supporting a maximum workpiece weight of 1,102 lbs. The machine utilizes a vertical spindle with a CAT #40 taper, optionally BT #40, offering a high-speed capability up to 12,000 RPM standard and 15,000 RPM optionally, enabling precise and efficient machining across a wide range of materials. It is equipped with a BT 40 tool carrier supporting up to 90 tools, extendable to 120 tools, allowing for versatile and complex machining operations without frequent tool changes. The system supports five axes of motion, excluding the U axis, with travels including a Y-axis travel of 30.7 inches and a Z-axis of 25.59 inches, combined with high rapid traverse rates for enhanced productivity. The rotary table support is standard, providing additional flexibility for angular machining tasks. The machine includes a single pallet system without an automated pallet changer, designed for stable setup and repeatable precision. This configuration suits applications requiring high rigidity, accuracy, and considerable workpiece handling capacity, ideal for mold making, aerospace, automotive, and heavy machinery sectors. The spindle's vertical orientation and CAT/BT #40 taper system conform to industry standards, supporting a wide array of tooling options. The overall design emphasizes robust mechanical construction, high-speed capability, and versatile tool management to optimize machining efficiency and accuracy in complex, multi-axis operations.
