2020 MAZAK VQC15 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2020 Mazak VQC15 is a 3-axis vertical machining center from the VQC (Vertical Quick Center) series, designed for general-purpose precision machining with a compact footprint. The machine features a 35.43 x 16.14 in. worktable and axis travels of 22.0 in. (X), 16.4 in. (Y), and 15.0 in. (Z), providing a machining envelope suitable for small to medium components. The CAT 40 spindle reaches a maximum speed of 6,000 RPM with approximately 10 HP of continuous output. A 16-tool automatic tool changer supports multi-operation programs. The 2020 VQC15 is controlled by Mazatrol M-32, providing conversational programming that allows operators to create programs directly from part geometry without requiring G-code expertise, reducing setup time in job shop environments. Box-way construction delivers the structural rigidity and damping needed for consistent accuracy across a variety of cutting conditions and materials. With an overall footprint of approximately 92.3 in. long by 75.9 in. wide by 103.5 in. tall and a machine weight of approximately 9,240 lbs, the VQC15 is a compact and capable machine for precision component production in toolroom, mold, and general machining environments.
