YAMA SEIKI VMB-1200 VERTICAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

This CNC machining center features robust physical dimensions of 118" x 106" x 106" and a weight of approximately 15,500 lbs, designed for industrial-scale milling tasks. The machine includes a sizable worktable measuring 47.2" x 23.6", capable of supporting up to 2,200 lbs, providing ample space and load capacity for various workpieces. Axis travels are 47.2" on X, and 23.6" on both Y and Z axes, with a spindle nose-to-table clearance adjustable between 5.9" and 29.5". The spindle uses a CAT 40 taper and operates up to 8,000 RPM, driven by a powerful 15/20 HP motor ensuring efficient material removal rates. Rapid traverse on all axes reaches 1,181 IPM, while the cutting feed rate ranges from 0.04 to 393.7 IPM, offering precise control over machining conditions. A 24-station automatic tool changer manages tools up to 15 lbs and 11.8" in length, with tool diameters up to 3.1" standard and 4.9" max, enabling quick 2.5-second tool changes and 5-second chip-to-chip times, significantly reducing downtime. The system demands 30 KVA power and 80 PSI air pressure, supported by a 66-gallon coolant tank integrated with active cooling management. Operational control is handled via the FANUC 0i-MC CNC system, known for reliability and advanced motion control features. Additional integrated equipment includes a chip conveyor, coolant system, spindle chiller, rigid tapping capability, automatic lubrication, and a full enclosure, ensuring operational efficiency, precision machining, and operator safety. This setup is well suited for high-performance milling applications requiring versatility and robust automation.
