SHIZUOKA B-5V VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust work envelope with 28" X-axis, 16" Y-axis, and 19" Z-axis travel, accommodating large and complex components. The expansive 43" × 13" table supports workpieces up to 1,080 lbs, enabling efficient production of diverse part geometries. The machine employs a CAT 40 spindle taper, an industry-standard interface featuring a 3.5 inches-per-foot taper ratio that ensures secure and precise tool holding with repeatable accuracy. Operating at 6,000 RPM with a powerful 15 HP spindle motor, this configuration delivers substantial cutting force suitable for both finishing and roughing operations across various materials including aluminum, steel, and composites. The 30-position automatic tool changer (ATC) enables uninterrupted production by minimizing tool change downtime and supporting complex multi-tool machining sequences. With machine dimensions of 80" × 85" × 110" and a substantial 10,000 lb weight, the rigid construction minimizes vibration and deflection, promoting dimensional stability and superior surface finish. This machine class is ideal for job shops and production facilities requiring versatility in component manufacturing, from die casting components and injection molding inserts to aerospace parts and precision mechanical assemblies. The combination of travel envelope, spindle power, and tool capacity makes this system suitable for mid-range production environments demanding both precision and productivity.
