PAT MOONEY PMI-CNC M-TYPE VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The PAT MOONEY PMI-CNC M-Type is a robust 3-axis CNC vertical machining center engineered for high-precision profile machining across diverse industrial applications. This machine excels at milling, drilling, and tapping ferrous metals, aluminum, and non-ferrous materials with exceptional accuracy and repeatability. The system features an extended X-axis working length ranging from 11.5 to 24.6 feet, accommodating large workpieces typical in aerospace, automotive, and structural fabrication environments. The Y-axis provides 14 inches of travel while the Z-axis delivers 20.87 inches of vertical clearance, enabling complex multi-dimensional operations. Powered by a 10 HP spindle motor capable of 8,000 RPM, the machine generates sufficient cutting force for production-grade applications. The integrated 24-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) with BT 40 tool holders minimizes changeover time and maximizes production efficiency. All three axes employ servo-controlled Mitsubishi drives and motors, ensuring precise positioning and repeatability. The machine incorporates dual lubrication systems—mist lubrication and automatic waylube—optimizing tool life and surface finish quality. The precision-machined T-slot table surface accepts optional pneumatic clamping systems for secure workpiece retention. The CNC control system provides intuitive operation for complex part programming. This machining center is ideal for job shops, contract manufacturers, and industries requiring versatile profile machining capabilities with high accuracy and minimal operator intervention.
