TURRET VTL-1600 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a robust main spindle capable of handling a maximum turning diameter of 70.870 inches and a turning length of up to 47.240 inches, supported by a 70-inch diameter chuck and a maximum swing of 78.700 inches. It operates at a spindle speed up to 250 RPM, driven by a 50 HP motor providing ample power for heavy cutting tasks. The machine utilizes a 2-axis configuration with precise linear travels of 70.000 inches on the X-axis and 35.430 inches on the Z-axis. Both axes support rapid traverse and maximum feed rates of 472 inches per minute, ensuring efficient and fast material removal. Equipped with a turret that can hold a maximum of 5 tools, the vertical machining center allows single simultaneous cutting tool operation, optimizing tooling changeovers and workflow. The X-axis controls diameter adjustments, while the Z-axis manages longitudinal tool movements, making it ideal for turning cylindrical workpieces with precision and repeatability. This configuration supports operations such as facing, turning, and threading on large-diameter parts requiring significant swing clearance and power. Its high feed rates enhance productivity without compromising accuracy or surface finish quality. The machine is suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications requiring machining of sizable parts within the 2-axis control framework.
