Victor 2473 DCM VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a rigid table measuring 72.8 inches in length by 24 inches in width, capable of supporting workpieces up to 3,960 lbs. It operates with a single vertical spindle equipped with a #40 taper, delivering up to 6,000 RPM and powered by a 10 HP motor rated for 30-minute intervals. The machine offers manual tooling with one tool carriage and no automatic tool change capability. Axis travel includes 59.1 inches on the X-axis, 30 inches on the Y-axis, and 28 inches on the Z-axis, supporting three-axis simultaneous motion. Rapid traverse and max feed rates are not specified but the machine is designed for heavy-duty machining given the high load capacity and spindle power. Its manual tool carrier and single-tool capacity limit automated operation, but the vertical spindle layout with substantial spindle horsepower and a large worktable supports machining of large, heavy parts. The machine’s configuration suits applications requiring high load capacity, medium spindle speeds, and three-axis precision without automatic tool changing, ideal for robust milling, drilling, and tapping of sizable workpieces.
