2011 MILLTRONICS RW15 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The 2011 MILLTRONICS RW15 is a 3-axis bed-type vertical machining center from Milltronics Manufacturing, a mid-range model in the RW wide-bed series offering a 15-inch Y-axis capacity suited to flat-profile and wide workpiece machining. The RW15 features a 30 x 14 inch work table within a 25 x 15 x 20 inch X/Y/Z machining envelope, providing practical capacity for plates, wide prismatic components, and flat fixtures in job shop and production environments. The 10 HP spindle motor operates through a CAT-40 spindle taper at speeds up to 8,000 RPM, delivering consistent cutting performance across aluminum, steel, and cast materials in the compact-to-mid-size workpiece range. A 16-station automatic tool changer handles multi-step programs without manual intervention, enabling full machining sequences in single setups. Maximum table load of 750 lbs is appropriate for the light-to-medium workpieces typical in the RW15's capacity class. Shipping dimensions of approximately 73 x 73 x 88 inches reflect the machine's compact overall footprint, and the approximately 7,000-pound machine weight provides structural stability for accurate, repeatable machining results. The Milltronics Centurion CNC control provides conversational and G-code programming with the manufacturer's job shop-oriented interface, supporting efficient part programming directly at the machine. Rapid traverse rates of the Centurion platform ensure efficient axis positioning during production cycles. The RW15 is a practical wide-bed VMC choice for North American shops requiring flat-workpiece capability in a compact, reliable, domestically manufactured machine.
