RODERS RFM 600 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust working envelope with X-axis travel of 24", Y-axis travel of 20", and Z-axis travel of 12", suitable for medium-sized precision parts. It is equipped with a high-speed spindle capable of reaching up to 42,000 RPM, utilizing an HSK E40 spindle taper that offers superior tool clamping precision, stability, and repeatability. The machine includes an 18-position automatic tool changer (ATC) with pressurized weight and tool changers to ensure reliable and rapid tool swaps. The 28" x 20" worktable supports the machining of sizable components, while the overall machine dimensions are 149" x 67" x 103" with a substantial weight of 11,400 lbs, indicating a rigid, heavy-duty construction. Control is managed by the Roders RMS 6 CNC system, providing advanced machining programming and execution capabilities. Key mechanical upgrades include new Y and Z axis ballscrews delivering precise axis movement and new drives and power supply enhancing reliability and performance. For chip management, the machine features a chip removal vacuum port, contributing to cleaner operation and improved machining conditions. This combination of high-speed spindle, precise axis travel, reliable tooling, and robust control system makes it highly suited for high-precision, high-speed milling applications requiring versatile tool selection and long-term operational stability.
