SMEC PCV400 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This CNC machining center features robust machine dimensions of 98.4" x 78.7" x 106.3", accommodating a 35.4" x 17.7" table with a maximum load capacity of 1,100 lbs. The machine supports precise multi-axis travel with X-axis at 25.6", Y-axis at 16.1", and Z-axis at 20.1", enabling versatile work envelope for complex parts. The spindle uses a CAT 40 taper, driven by a powerful 15/10 HP motor capable of 8,000 RPM, facilitating efficient high-speed cutting. Spindle nose to table distance ranges from 5.9" to 26" to adapt to varying part heights. Rapid traverse rates are high, reaching 1,417 IPM on X and Y axes and 1,181 IPM on Z, supporting fast, precise positioning and cycle times. Cutting feed rates span 0.04 to 590.6 IPM for flexible machining conditions. The 24-tool automatic changer accommodates tools up to 3.1" diameter (4.9" with adjacent pocket empty), 11.8" length, and 15.4 lbs weight, enabling multi-tool operations without manual intervention. The machine maintains exceptional accuracy with positioning tolerance of ±0.0002" and repeatability of ±0.0001", aligned with precision engineering standards for tight dimensional control. Controlled by the Fanuc 0i-MF system, it offers reliable 3-axis control with advanced servo feedback. Supporting infrastructure includes 30 KVA power requirement, a 66-gallon coolant tank for thermal management, and an air pressure requirement of 5.5–7.1 PSI, ensuring stable operation. The machine’s 11,000 lbs weight underlines its sturdy construction, providing rigidity essential for maintaining machining precision and minimizing vibration effects during operation.
