2018 MAZAK VCN700D VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2018 Mazak VCN700D is a 3-axis large-format vertical machining center designed for high-productivity machining of large and heavy workpieces. The 1,740 x 700 mm work table is rated for substantial load capacity and provides X-axis travel of 60.2 inches, Y-axis travel of 27.6 inches, and Z-axis travel of 25.6 inches, creating an expansive machining envelope suited to large mold bases, structural aerospace components, and industrial housings. The standard BT50 taper spindle delivers 8,000 RPM maximum speed with 30 HP continuous power and high torque, prioritizing cutting force over rotational speed for heavy-duty machining applications. Rapid traverse of 1,181 IPM across all axes limits non-cutting time between widely spaced features. The 24-tool automatic tool changer supports complete multi-operation setups on large workpieces without manual intervention. Box-way construction provides the structural mass and rigidity required for aggressive cutting on large, heavy parts without deflection or vibration. The Mazatrol Smooth CNC provides conversational and EIA/ISO programming, advanced thermal compensation, IoT connectivity, and SmoothAI adaptive feed control for optimized cycle times and tool life. Integrated chip management and high-pressure coolant options maintain productive cutting conditions throughout extended runs. The VCN700D is well suited to aerospace, die and mold, energy, and heavy industrial manufacturing applications requiring a large-envelope 3-axis VMC with maximum rigidity. Overall machine dimensions are approximately 161.4 x 137.2 x 135.1 inches and the machine weighs approximately 27,400 lbs.
