TRIMILL VF3016 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The TRIMILL VF3016 Horizontal Machining Center is a high-performance 5-axis gantry-type portal milling machine designed for precision and rigidity, featuring a box-in-box gantry structure with UHPC (ultra-high performance concrete) components that enhance thermal stability and vibration damping. The machine offers travel axes of 3000 mm (X), 1600 mm (Y), and 1200 mm (Z), with rapid feed rates up to 40,000 mm/min, supporting highly dynamic and precise machining operations. The spindle is equipped with an HSK-A 63 tool holder, operating at speeds ranging from 10 to 24,000 rpm, with a characteristic speed of 6,000 rpm. Its drive system delivers 42 kW of continuous power (S1) and peaks at 50 kW (S6), providing torque of 67 Nm (S1) and up to 84 Nm (S6) to handle demanding cutting tasks. This machine incorporates a robust rotary milling head with B-axis swivel capabilities of ±100° and C-axis swivel of ±240°, each with clamping torques of 4000 Nm and respective swivel torques of 600 Nm (B-axis) and 700 Nm (C-axis), allowing flexible and precise 5-axis machining. The spindle clamping force is a substantial 18,000 N to maintain tool stability. The HEIDENHAIN iTNC530 CNC control system ensures advanced, reliable control over complex machining processes. Coolant systems include internal coolant pressure of up to 50 bar and outer spray nozzles at 6 bar, optimizing chip evacuation and tool cooling. The machine's solid construction supports a fixed table of 3500 x 1750 mm and can handle workpieces up to 7000 kg/m², making it well-suited for heavy-duty industrial applications requiring high accuracy and thermal consistency.
