SHEM VM80 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This 3-axis CNC machining center features a robust work envelope with X-axis travel of 31.5 inches (800 mm) and Y-axis travel of 11.81 inches (300 mm), providing ample space for medium-sized workpieces. The machine is equipped with a powerful 7.38 hp (5.5 kW) spindle capable of reaching speeds up to 6,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and high-precision cutting across a variety of metals, plastics, and composites. The worktable measures 39.37 inches (1,000 mm) in length and 11.81 inches (300 mm) in width, supporting versatile fixturing and workholding options. Designed for accuracy and repeatability, the machine utilizes precision linear guides and ball screws on all three axes, delivering tight tolerances and smooth motion control. The vertical spindle orientation allows for traditional milling operations, while the 3-axis configuration enables movement in the X (left-right), Y (front-back), and Z (up-down) directions, suitable for a wide range of milling tasks including profiling, drilling, and contouring. The machine’s rigid construction ensures stability during heavy cuts, minimizing vibration and deflection for consistent results. With its combination of power, travel, and precision, this CNC mill is ideal for prototyping, small batch production, and detailed machining applications in engineering, manufacturing, and education environments.
