Willis Machinery & Tools KMV-32P VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This vertical machining center features a robust 126" x 70" table capable of supporting workpieces weighing up to 11,000 lbs, ideal for heavy-duty machining tasks. It is equipped with a vertical spindle with a CAT #50 taper, providing enhanced rigidity and stability for tough cutting operations. The spindle delivers a standard power rating of 30 HP for 30-minute intervals, with an optional upgrade to 50 HP, and operates at a top speed of 4,500 RPM, which can be increased to 6,000 RPM as an option. The tool handling system includes a side-mounted arm-type automatic tool changer (ATC) accommodating up to 24 tools as standard, with an optional capacity for 60, supporting high productivity and rapid tool changes. The machine operates on 3 axes (X, Y, and Z) with travels of 126” (X, inferred from table length), 70” (Y), and 35” (Z), allowing for extensive machining envelopes. Rapid traverse and feed rates are tailored to large-scale workpieces, optimizing operational efficiency. Its design supports applications requiring substantial load handling and precision, such as aerospace, heavy machinery, and large mold manufacturing. The CAT #50 spindle taper is standardized to ensure compatibility with a wide range of heavy-duty tooling and offers high tensile core strength and durability, suitable for demanding milling and drilling operations. This machining center’s combination of large work envelope, high power spindle, and versatile tooling capacity makes it a reliable solution for precision manufacturing of large or heavy parts.
