Technical Description
This vertical machining center features a robust **67" x 32" table** capable of supporting workpieces up to **3,300 lbs**, providing a large and stable machining surface ideal for heavy or large parts. It offers optional support for rotary and index tables to enhance flexibility in multi-axis operations. The spindle is vertical with a standard **#40 taper**, upgradeable to **#50**, and delivers up to **8,000 RPM** standard, with an optional **10,000 RPM** for high-speed machining. Powered by a **20 HP** motor (30-minute rating), the spindle offers a strong and consistent power supply suitable for a wide range of materials and cutting conditions.
The tool system includes a **24-station arm-type side-mounted automatic tool changer (ATC)**, with an option to increase to 32 tools, supporting efficient tool changes for complex or multi-tool operations. The machine operates with **3 axes** (X, Y, Z), each with a travel of **32 inches** in Y and Z directions, designed to provide precise and consistent motion control. Rapid traverse rates and feed rates are optimized for fast, accurate movements, though exact values are not specified.
This machine’s capabilities emphasize heavy workpiece handling, versatile tooling options, and spindle power, making it suitable for demanding milling, drilling, tapping, and finishing processes in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and mold and die manufacturing. Optional rotary and indexing tables further expand its utility for complex contour and multi-faceted machining applications.
