Southwestern Industries, Inc. TRAK DPM SX3P VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

The Southwestern Industries, Inc. TRAK DPM SX3P Vertical Machining Center is a robust, high-precision bed mill designed for demanding milling applications. It features a 50" x 10" table capable of supporting workpieces up to 1,320 lbs, providing a stable and rigid work support surface. The machine’s vertical spindle utilizes an NMTB 40 taper and delivers up to 5.0 HP (30-minute rating), with a maximum spindle speed of 3,950 RPM (optional 5,000 RPM), ensuring efficient material removal and excellent surface finishes. Tooling is manually loaded, with a single tool carrier and no automatic tool changer, making it ideal for shops prioritizing simplicity and reliability. The DPM SX3P offers three-axis control (X, Y, Z) with generous travel distances: 33" in X, 17" in Y, and 23.5" in Z, allowing for versatile part handling and large work envelope capabilities. Maximum feed rates reach 20 ipm across all axes, while rapid traverse speeds are 150 ipm, enabling fast positioning and reduced non-cutting time. The machine’s solid ram design and bed-type construction provide exceptional mass and stability for heavy cuts and high accuracy. Equipped with the ProtoTRAK SMX CNC control, the DPM SX3P combines user-friendly operation with advanced CNC functionality, making it suitable for both prototyping and production environments. Its robust build, generous table size, and powerful spindle make it a reliable choice for precision vertical milling tasks.
