High-Performance VMCS

MAG Fadal will be demonstrating high-performance vertical machining centers.


MAG Fadal will be demonstrating high-performance vertical machining centers. A MAG Fadal VMC 6535 HTX, tooled with special brazed and solid-carbide cutting tools from MAG Maintenance Technologies, will be aggressively cutting titanium through use of a 50-taper, 6,000rpm high-torque, air/oil spindle delivering 35.8kW peak power, 600Nm peak torque. With X, Y, Z axis travel of 1,651mm x 889mm x 787mm, the machine is designed to optimize heavy-duty cutting operations. Cutting feedrates are up to 15.4mpm, with rapid travel rates up to 22.86mpm.

Two machines from the MAG Fadal FX Series will be demonstrated: a VMC 3016 FX and a VMC 4020 FX, both powered by the Infimatic Freedom NC200 control. Steel, stainless and aluminum parts will be cut on the machines at the show. The 3016 FX and 4020 FX are designed with rigid boxway construction for maximum vibration damping operations and Steinmeyer ETA+ dual-mounted ballscrews that optimize machine stiffness and virtually eliminate reversal error.
