Willemin-Macodel W-418 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features a robust table/work support with a size of 7.870" (L) x 7.870" (W), capable of supporting a maximum workpiece weight of 110 lbs. The machine is equipped with two vertical main spindles, each utilizing an ISO 25 taper as standard, with an optional ISO 30 taper for increased versatility. The spindles deliver a top speed of 12,000 RPM, with an optional upgrade to 18,000 RPM, and a 30-minute horsepower rating of 9.00 HP, ensuring high performance for demanding applications. Tooling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) with a standard capacity of 24 tools, expandable to 180 tools for high-volume production. Tool change time is rapid at 1.00 second, with a chip-to-chip time of 5.00 seconds, maximizing uptime and efficiency. An optional pallet changer is available, supporting 2 pallets as standard and up to 10 for continuous operation. The machine operates on 5 axes, providing precise control over complex geometries, with travel ranges of 19.690" (X), 9.840" (Y), and 15.750" (Z), and a B-axis rotation of 110.000°. Maximum feed rates and rapid traverse speeds are both 787 ipm across all linear axes, ensuring swift and accurate movement. This configuration is ideal for high-precision, multi-axis machining in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and mold making, where speed, accuracy, and flexibility are critical.
