SCHIESS VM 4 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC vertical machining center features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter and swing of 125.980 inches, and a maximum turning length of 98.430 inches, supporting large workpieces with high clearance. The main spindle chuck diameter measures 98.430 inches, with an optional upgrade to 110.240 inches, enabling flexible material holding capacity. Powered by a 147 HP spindle, the machine operates at up to 160 RPM, delivering substantial torque for heavy-duty turning operations. Tooling capacities include up to 30 tools, with a rotary tool horsepower of 70 HP and a maximum rotary tool speed of 3,150 RPM, suitable for milling or drilling tasks. It supports up to one simultaneous cutting tool and operates on three linear axes (X, Y, Z) for precise multi-directional machining. The X-axis travel is 161.000 inches with a maximum feed and rapid traverse rate of 630 inches per minute, matching the rapid traverse rates of the Y and Z axes, with the Z-axis travel covering 55.120 inches. This configuration allows for complex part geometries and efficient material removal with high repeatability and precision, ideal for large, complex components. The advanced spindle and tool features combined with robust axis travels and speeds make this vertical machining center well-suited for precision machining in demanding industrial applications requiring large work envelopes and versatile tooling options.
