Microcut CNC VMC 3100 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical CNC machining center features a large work envelope with a 133.8" × 35.43" table designed to accommodate substantial workpieces up to 6,600 lbs. The machine is equipped with a #40 spindle taper (optional #50) capable of reaching 10,000 RPM at 20 HP, with an optional configuration delivering 29.5 HP at 6,000 RPM for heavy-duty cutting operations. The three-axis configuration provides impressive travel distances: 122" on the X-axis, 35.4" on the Y-axis, and 33.46" on the Z-axis, all supporting rapid traverse rates of 787 IPM for efficient non-cutting movements. An optional fourth axis is available for expanded machining capabilities. The automatic tool changer (ATC) system holds 32 tools standard, expandable to 48 tools, with tool change times of just 4 seconds, minimizing production interruptions. This enables rapid tool switching for complex multi-operation jobs. An optional pallet changer provides increased flexibility for continuous production workflows. The machine's substantial size, high spindle power, and generous work area make it suitable for aerospace, automotive, and heavy industrial applications requiring precision machining of large components from rough machining through finish operations. Maximum feed rates are optimized for the machine's high rigidity and thermal stability, typical of modern vertical machining centers with rigid cast-iron construction and precision linear guideways.
