Sharp-CNC SVX-500 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a **19.7" x 19.7" table** capable of supporting workpieces up to **770 lbs**, providing a stable working surface without integrated support for rotary or index tables. It is equipped with a **#40 Big Plus vertical spindle** delivering up to **15,000 RPM** with a **25 HP motor (30-minute rating)**, ensuring high-speed, high-power machining suitable for demanding applications. The machine utilizes an **automatic tool changer (ATC) carousel with a 30-tool capacity**, achieving a tool change time of 4 seconds and a chip-to-chip time of 6 seconds to maximize productivity. The machine has **5 controlled axes** with travels of **23.6" (X), 31.9" (Y), and 19.7" (Z)**, and an A-axis rotary rotation up to 130°. Rapid traverse rates reach **2,362 inches per minute** across all linear axes, supporting fast non-cutting movements and reducing cycle times. This 5-axis capability enables the machining of complex geometries without multiple setups. The machine omits the U axis and pallet changer options, focusing on precision milling and complex contouring. Overall, this vertical machining center combines a sturdy worktable, high spindle speed and horsepower, fast tool management, and multi-axis motion for flexible, high-precision metalworking operations in aerospace, automotive, and mold-making industries.
