Willemin-Macodel W-408 MTV VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

This vertical machining center features an HSK-E40 spindle taper with an optional top spindle speed of 42,000 RPM and a 13 HP (19 HP optional) motor rated for 30 minutes, delivering high-speed, high-power machining capabilities. The machine is equipped with a 24-tool automatic tool changer (ATC), expandable to 96 tools, enabling rapid tool changes in about 1 second with a 3-second chip-to-chip time optimized for productivity. It operates on a 5-axis configuration (6 axes optional), providing complex part machining with rotational axes A (360°) and B (130°). The machine offers travel capacities of 9.84 inches (X), 7.87 inches (Y), and 11.81 inches (Z) with rapid feed rates up to 1,181 inches per minute, supporting efficient material removal and precise positioning. The spindle’s vertical axis orientation with advanced HSK-E40 taper ensures excellent tool rigidity, precise tool holding, and thermal stability for demanding operations. The spindle incorporates high-precision components suitable for both rough and ultra-precision finishing, compatible with high-speed machining applications. The machine’s design supports high accuracy and repeatability critical for aerospace, automotive, and mold manufacturing sectors. Rapid traverse rates and a high number of tool stations enhance operational efficiency by minimizing downtime due to tooling changes. This configuration suits complex, high-precision parts manufacturing requiring versatile multi-axis control, high spindle speed, and power combined with a robust ATC for automated, high-throughput machining.
