Pinnacle QV159 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Pinnacle QV159 is a three-axis vertical machining center designed for precision milling and production applications. It features a spacious work table measuring 66.93" x 33.46" with a maximum workpiece capacity of 4,400 lbs, accommodating medium to large-scale components. The machine is equipped with an ISO40 spindle taper operating at a maximum of 8,000 RPM with 15 HP (30-minute rating), providing adequate power for diverse cutting operations. The vertical spindle orientation enables efficient machining of flat and complex surfaces across multiple industries. The automatic tool changer (ATC) standard configuration carries 20 tools, expandable to 24 tools, enabling fast tool exchanges and extended unattended machining cycles. Three-axis CNC control provides full XYZ positioning with impressive travel capacities: X-axis 59", Y-axis 35.4", and Z-axis 33.46". Rapid traverse rates reach 629 ipm across all axes, while maximum cutting feedrates of 394 ipm optimize productivity and cycle times. The machine's rigid construction, built from high-quality cast iron, ensures superior accuracy and stability during demanding machining operations. Optional features include a two-pallet changer system for increased production flexibility and part changeover efficiency. The QV159 combines robust engineering with advanced CNC capabilities, making it suitable for job shops, tool and die operations, and manufacturing facilities requiring reliable performance and precision tolerances in milling operations.
