Twinhorn VH-650 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a CAT 40 taper spindle with a top speed of 8,000 RPM standard and an optional upgrade to 12,000 RPM, delivering 15 HP rated for 30 minutes, ideal for high-speed precision machining. It supports a 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z), with optional 4th axis capability. Axis travels are 25.59 inches (X), 19.69 inches (Y), and 20.47 inches (Z), with maximum feed rates of 315 inches/min and rapid traverse speeds up to 945 inches/min in all axes, enabling fast material removal and efficient production cycles. The worktable measures 31.5 inches in length and 17.72 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 880 lbs. Optional support is available via index or rotary tables for enhanced versatility in complex operations. The machine uses a 24-tool automatic tool changer (ATC) with tool change times of approximately 2.5 seconds, facilitating quick transitions between operations and minimizing downtime. This configuration targets high precision and productivity in milling applications, suitable for tasks requiring moderate to heavy workpiece weights with moderate to high spindle speeds. The vertical spindle orientation and CAT 40 tooling system allow compatibility with a wide range of tooling, promoting flexibility in materials and machining strategies. The compact table size and robust motor power make it well-suited for small to medium-sized parts with efficient setup and tool management for a broad spectrum of manufacturing environments.
