2012 VISION WIDE VF4000 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTERS

Technical Description

The 2012 Vision Wide VF4000 is a 3-axis double-column fixed-crossrail vertical machining center manufactured by Vision Wide Tech Co. of Taiwan, representing the extended X-axis variant of the VF series for machining very large dies, molds, aerospace panels, and heavy industrial structures in a single clamping. The VF4000 provides 165.35 inches of X-axis travel, 90.55 inches of Y-axis travel, and 36.22 inches of Z-axis travel, with a table measuring 165.4 by 80.7 inches. The 35 HP spindle reaches 6,000 RPM through a two-speed gearbox and accommodates ISO-50 taper tooling, providing strong torque for heavy material removal in steel, cast iron, and large-diameter face milling applications. Fanuc 18i-MB CNC control provides high-speed contouring, comprehensive production programming, and reliable operator interface. The fixed-crossrail double-column structure delivers maximum rigidity across the VF4000's 165-inch X-axis stroke, ensuring accuracy retention during heavy interrupted cuts and large-area surface milling. At approximately 86,680 pounds, the VF4000 is one of Vision Wide's heaviest standard double-column machines, requiring heavy-duty reinforced foundations and substantial crane capacity for installation. This machine is ideally suited to aerospace panel manufacturers, heavy equipment producers, large die and mold shops, and shipbuilders requiring extra-large-format machining capability with maximum structural rigidity and high spindle power.
