Monarch LBM-1500 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 48.000 inches in length by 24.000 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 4,400 lbs, making it suitable for heavy-duty machining applications. The spindle is oriented vertically with an HSK 63 taper, providing high rigidity and precision for demanding milling tasks. The spindle achieves a top speed of 18,000 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 24,000 RPM, and delivers a 30-minute power rating of 40 HP, ensuring strong performance for extended cutting cycles. Tooling is managed by a double-arm tool changer, accommodating up to 16 tools for efficient and rapid tool exchange. The machine operates on three primary axes (X, Y, Z), with an optional fourth axis for enhanced flexibility. Axis travels are 68.800 inches (X), 39.400 inches (Y), and 25.500 inches (Z), allowing for large work envelope coverage. Maximum feed rates are 393 inches per minute across all axes, while rapid traverse reaches 1,180 inches per minute, enabling fast positioning and reduced cycle times. This configuration delivers high productivity, accuracy, and versatility for a wide range of CNC milling operations, from prototyping to high-volume production.
