SAMSUNG PCV 400 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a CAT40 BIG PLUS spindle taper system designed for enhanced rigidity and precision. The machine delivers 24.97 horsepower through a 10,000 RPM spindle, providing substantial cutting capability for heavy-duty applications. The work envelope spans 27.56 inches (X-axis), 15.75 inches (Y-axis), and 20.08 inches (Z-axis), accommodating moderately sized workpieces with excellent accessibility. The dual-contact BIG PLUS spindle system simultaneously engages both the taper and spindle face, increasing tool holder rigidity approximately four times compared to standard CAT40 holders. This dual-contact design effectively eliminates the typical 0.125-inch gap found in conventional spindles, reducing chatter, improving surface finish, and extending tool life. The flange diameter contact point increases from 44.45mm (standard CAT40) to 63.5mm (BIG PLUS), maximizing rigidity at the critical base of the tool holder. The generously sized 29.53-inch by 16.54-inch table provides ample workholding capacity for diverse machining operations. CNC control enables complex multi-axis programming and rapid traverse rates, optimizing cycle times and production efficiency. The CAT40 BIG PLUS compatibility ensures interchangeability with existing tool holder inventories while delivering superior performance characteristics including improved ATC repeatability, elimination of Z-axis movement at high speeds, and prevention of fretting corrosion. This configuration represents an ideal balance of power, precision, and work envelope for general job shop and production environments requiring reliable heavy-duty machining capabilities.
