Monarch VMC-3560QP VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust worktable measuring 66.9 inches in length by 33.9 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces weighing up to 5,500 lbs, with optional support tables for index and rotary configurations. The machine operates with a vertical spindle equipped with a CT50 taper, delivering up to 6,000 RPM and a 30 HP rating for 30-minute duty cycles, ensuring strong and consistent cutting power. Tool handling is facilitated by a double-arm automatic tool changer (ATC) holding 24 tools standard, expandable to 32, with a rapid 5-second tool change time, optimizing production efficiency. It operates on a standard 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z), with optional 4-axis upgrade, offering travels of 60.0 inches in X, 32.5 inches in Y, and 30.0 inches in Z axes. Each axis supports a maximum feed rate of 276 inches per minute and a rapid traverse rate of 472 inches per minute, enabling precise and high-speed machining. The vertical spindle orientation combined with a rigid, large capacity table supports machining of heavy and large components with high accuracy and repeatability. The machine is suited for machining operations requiring substantial cutting force and flexibility in tooling, capable of handling complex and large parts with high throughput. Typical applications include heavy-duty milling, die and mold making, and manufacturing of aerospace or automotive components requiring robust machine capacity and precision. Optional indexing and rotary table supports allow multi-angle machining and enhanced part versatility.
