2000 VIPER VMC2100P VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2000 Viper VMC2100P is a 3-axis bridge-type vertical machining center manufactured by Mighty Viper Enterprise Co. of Taiwan, designed for large-format production milling of aerospace components, tooling plates, large molds, and heavy industrial parts. The VMC2100P provides approximately 80 to 83 inches of X-axis travel, 40 to 41 inches of Y-axis travel, and 29 to 32 inches of Z-axis travel, with a table measuring 82.7 by 41.3 inches. The 30 HP spindle accommodates CAT-50 tooling and reaches 4,000 to 6,000 RPM depending on configuration, delivering the torque needed for heavy material removal in steel, cast iron, and aluminum. The geared headstock provides high cutting torque at lower spindle speeds, making the machine well-suited to large-diameter face milling and heavy roughing operations. Fanuc 18M or equivalent Fanuc CNC control provides the programming interface, with some units fitted with Fanuc 8i-MB or Mitsubishi Meldas depending on vintage. A 30 to 32 position automatic tool changer supports extended multi-operation programs. At approximately 43,000 to 47,000 pounds with overall dimensions of approximately 220 by 182 by 110 inches, the VMC2100P is a large, heavy-duty machine requiring substantial floor foundations. Rapid traverse of approximately 593 IPM ensures efficient cycle times for large-format work. This machine provides a capable and cost-effective platform for manufacturers requiring large bridge-mill capacity.
