SMTCL VMC850E VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machine features a 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z) with travel dimensions of 33.46 inches (X), 19.69 inches (Y), and 21.26 inches (Z), and a table size measuring 19.69 inches in width and 39.37 inches in length. It operates with a spindle speed up to 8,000 RPM, suitable for precision milling tasks. The machine is controlled by the FANUC 0i Mate MD CNC system, known for reliable 3-axis simultaneous control with digital servo feedback and a high-resolution incremental system down to 0.001 mm or 0.0001 inches for precise positioning. The FANUC controller supports advanced motion functions including fine acceleration and deceleration, spindle speed override (0–254%), rapid traverse and feedrate override, and high-speed communication interfaces facilitating efficient program transfer and diagnostic operations. It integrates programmable cycles, tool compensation with up to 400 tool offset pairs, rigid tapping, and multiple coordinate systems with shift capabilities, enhancing machining flexibility. The control system supports manual handle feed with variable rates, jog override, and rich automation options including automatic data backup and multicore PMC functions. Overall, this machine combines moderate workspace dimensions, high spindle speed, and a robust FANUC control platform optimized for complex milling tasks requiring precise axis control and versatile programming features.
