Technical Description
This CNC machining center features a robust work envelope with travel dimensions of 51.57 inches (X), 16.93 inches (Y), and 23.23 inches (Z), providing ample capacity for a wide range of milling applications. Powered by a 7.38 hp spindle motor, the machine delivers consistent performance for both light and heavy cutting operations. The spindle operates at speeds up to 5,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and high-quality surface finishes across various materials. Equipped with the ProtoTRAK CNC control system, the machine combines intuitive programming with advanced features such as conversational geometry-based programming, canned cycles, and real-time graphics. The ProtoTRAK interface supports both manual and CNC operation, offering seamless transitions between modes and simplifying setup for complex parts. Operators benefit from a clear, user-friendly display, incremental and absolute dimensioning, automatic tool compensation, and the ability to mix programming modes within a single job. The control also provides jog at rapid speeds, programmable go-to dimensions, servo return to zero, and tool offsets from a library for enhanced accuracy and repeatability. Additional features include override controls for feedrate and spindle speed, power feed on all axes, and real-time part graphics for visual verification during programming and operation. Designed for versatility and ease of use, this machine is well-suited for job shops, prototyping, and short-run production environments where precision, reliability, and operator efficiency are paramount.
