QUANTUM Q-2000V VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features robust axis travels of 80 inches on the X-axis, 35 inches on the Y-axis, and 32 inches on the Z-axis, enabling the handling of sizable workpieces with substantial resolution and precision. The spindle operates at speeds up to 15,000 RPM, powered by a high-torque 30 HP motor, offering a combination of high-speed machining and heavy-duty cutting capability. The spindle utilizes a CAT 50 taper interface, known for its large size and rigidity, ideal for heavy-duty applications requiring increased stability and cutting force capacity; it conforms to the ASME B5.50 standard with a taper angle of approximately 7/24 (around 8 degrees), providing secure tool retention and precise concentricity. Tool changes are managed via a 40-position automatic tool changer (ATC), optimizing operational efficiency by minimizing downtime. The system is controlled through a Fanuc 18i-M CNC controller, which offers advanced programmability and reliable motion control for complex machining tasks. Chip removal is efficiently handled by an integrated chip conveyor, ensuring continuous operation by clearing chips from the cutting area and preventing accumulation that could affect machining accuracy or tool life. Overall, this configuration is optimized for high-volume, precision machining across large work envelopes, combining powerful spindle performance with automated tooling and material handling features.
