Parpas PHS 812 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a rigid worktable measuring 51.97" x 31.50" (optional 36" x 24"), supporting workpieces up to 2,600 lbs, suitable for large and heavy parts. It operates with a vertical spindle designated to a #40 taper, offering a standard speed of up to 8,000 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 22,000 RPM for high-speed machining. The spindle is powered by a 15 HP motor rated for 30 minutes, upgradeable to 20 HP, providing strong cutting force and torque. A 20-station automatic tool changer (ATC) is standard, with a capacity option up to 40 tools, facilitating efficient tool management without manual intervention. The machine is equipped with three axes (X, Y, Z) with travels of 47.24" (opt. 31"), 31.5" (opt. 24"), and 19.69" respectively. Each axis supports rapid traverse and max feed rates up to 1,181 ipm, enabling fast tool movements and minimizing cycle times. The machine’s construction emphasizes precision, durability, and productivity, making it suitable for complex milling, die-making, and heavy-duty industrial machining applications. The vertical spindle configuration and BT40 taper compatibility ensure versatility in tooling and machining strategies. This center balances robust workpiece handling with high-speed, automated tooling capabilities, designed to maximize operational efficiency and machining accuracy on extensive and heavy components.
