MAZAK VC-500C/2PC VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The MAZAK VC-500C/2PC is a high-performance vertical machining center engineered for precision metal removal across diverse industrial applications. This three-axis system features an 18.6 kW spindle motor delivering 12,000 RPM, providing substantial power and torque for aggressive cutting operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The machine employs a BT40 spindle taper compatible with standard tooling, offering versatility in tool selection and changeover capabilities. With a 30-station automatic tool changer (ATC), the system supports rapid tool exchanges to minimize production downtime and maximize operational efficiency. The worktable accommodates workpieces up to 39.37 inches wide by 19.7 inches long, providing adequate machining area for mid-sized components common in aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing sectors. CNC control enables precise three-axis (X, Y, Z) coordinate positioning with programmable feed rates and spindle speeds, allowing complex contouring and multi-plane machining operations. The machine's rigid construction with structural analysis optimization minimizes thermal displacement and vibration during high-speed rotation. Standard features typically include automatic lubrication systems, coolant delivery mechanisms, and linear guideways ensuring positional accuracy and repeatability. The VC-500C/2PC represents MAZAK's commitment to delivering enhanced cutting performance through spindle rigidity and balanced machine geometry, making it suitable for job shops requiring reliable precision machining capabilities with production flexibility.
