Sharp KMA-2 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust table measuring 74.810 inches in length by 21.630 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 2,000 lbs. The vertical spindle is equipped with a #50 taper, providing high rigidity and compatibility with a wide range of tooling for demanding machining tasks. The spindle delivers a maximum speed of 1,500 RPM and is powered by a 15 HP motor (30-minute rating), ensuring strong performance for heavy-duty cutting and milling operations. Tooling is manually loaded, with a single tool capacity, making it suitable for applications where frequent tool changes are not required. The machine operates on three axes (X, Y, Z), each offering precise travel: X-axis 47.250 inches, Y-axis 17.690 inches, and Z-axis 21.630 inches. All axes support a maximum feed rate of 34 IPM and a rapid traverse rate of 113 IPM, enabling efficient movement and positioning for both roughing and finishing operations. The design emphasizes stability, accuracy, and ease of use, making it ideal for precision machining of large or heavy workpieces in industrial environments.
