WMW BTM 2200-FR VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The WMW BTM 2200-FR is a heavy-duty vertical machining center designed for large-scale industrial machining operations. This machine features an expansive work table measuring 187 inches by 87 inches, capable of supporting workpieces weighing up to 40,000 pounds, making it suitable for substantial component fabrication. The vertical spindle utilizes an ISO #50 taper interface and operates at a maximum speed of 2,000 RPM, generating 40 horsepower at the 30-minute rating, providing robust cutting power for demanding applications. The machine is equipped with three linear axes delivering exceptional travel ranges: 181 inches on the X-axis, 150 inches on the Y-axis, and 40 inches on the Z-axis, enabling machining of large and complex workpieces. The manual tool carrier configuration holds a single tool, indicating this machine is optimized for dedicated operations or sequential setups rather than rapid automated tool changes typical of modern production environments. The substantial size and capability of the BTM 2200-FR positions it as a precision heavy-duty machining center ideal for aerospace, large industrial manufacturing, and prototype development where machining large aluminum or steel components is required. The lower spindle speed is characteristic of machines designed for high-torque applications and larger cutting tools, prioritizing power delivery over speed for material removal efficiency.
