Technical Description
This vertical machining center features a large table measuring 78.74 in. by 43.31 in., capable of supporting a maximum workpiece weight of 8,818 lbs, ensuring it can handle heavy-duty machining tasks. The machine operates with a vertical spindle utilizing a BT50 taper, designed for robust tool holding and high rigidity, ideal for demanding industrial applications. The spindle achieves a maximum speed of 10,000 rpm powered by a 29.5 HP motor with a 30-minute rating, providing the necessary power for precision and efficiency. Tooling is managed via an automatic tool changer (ATC) drum that accommodates 32 tools, with an option to increase capacity to 40 tools, enabling extended machining operations without manual intervention. The machining center operates on 3 linear axes (X, Y, and Z) with travels of 78.74", 47.24", and 30" respectively, each capable of a maximum feed rate of 394 IPM and rapid traverse speeds up to 787 IPM, facilitating high-speed machining cycles. This combination of a large worktable, high load capacity, powerful spindle, and versatile tooling combined with fast feed rates and substantial axis travel makes this vertical machining center well-suited for heavy, precise milling, drilling, boring, tapping, and mold and die fabrication in industrial manufacturing environments. The BT50 taper ensures exceptional tool stability and balance at high speeds, reducing vibration and tool wear for enhanced machining accuracy.
