SMART MACHINE TOOL SM 2600 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC machining center features a CAT50 spindle with BIG PLUS dual-contact technology, delivering enhanced rigidity and tool stability for demanding machining operations. The spindle operates at 6,000 RPM with 24.93 hp (approximately 18.6 kW) of power, providing robust cutting capability for heavy-duty applications. The BIG PLUS system establishes simultaneous contact between the tool holder's taper and spindle face, significantly increasing the effective contact diameter compared to conventional steep tapers and improving overall system rigidity. The machine accommodates a spacious worktable measuring 102.36 × 39.38 inches (2,600 × 1,000 mm) with substantial Z-axis clearance, enabling versatile workpiece positioning. Travel ranges of 103.35 inches (X-axis), 40.17 inches (Y-axis), and 35.43 inches (Z-axis) provide expansive machining envelope for large-scale components. The 40-position automatic tool changer (ATC) ensures rapid tool changes and uninterrupted production flow, critical for complex multi-operation parts. CNC control enables precise programming and repeatability essential for aerospace, automotive, and die/mold applications. The CAT50 taper configuration, combined with BIG PLUS technology, makes this machine suitable for applications requiring high precision and cutting forces where standard steep tapers would prove inadequate. Its substantial power delivery and travel range position it as an industrial-grade vertical machining center designed for production environments demanding accuracy and reliability.
