Victor 1763H VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a manual tool carrier with a single tool capacity and a vertical spindle with an MT #5 taper, capable of reaching up to 1,920 RPM powered by an 8 HP motor rated for 30 minutes. The machine table measures 27.63 inches in length and 19.63 inches in width, supporting workpieces weighing up to 1,500 lbs. It offers two axes of movement, with a maximum Z-axis travel of 35.44 inches; X and Y axis travel details are unspecified. The spindle orientation is vertical, accommodating heavy-duty milling tasks typically requiring robust stability and precise vertical alignment. The machine’s manual tool change system enables chip-to-chip time of zero seconds, indicating no automated tool change feature. Maximum rapid traverse and feed rates for the axes are not provided. This equipment is suitable for applications demanding substantial load support and moderate spindle speed, including medium-scale milling and drilling tasks where manual tool operation and vertical spindle alignment are applicable. The taper MT #5 and vertical orientation are common in conventional machining centers for robust tooling compatibility and vertical cutting operations. The machine supports a maximum workpiece weight significantly above standard hobbyist mills, indicating industrial-grade construction for reliable, heavy-duty machining processes. Z-axis travel of 35.44 inches allows for considerable vertical workpiece clearance, facilitating deep cuts or tall part machining. This configuration is ideal for shops needing a strong, manually operated vertical mill with a straightforward tool setup for workpieces up to 1,500 lbs.
