The MF-46VA vertical machining center (VMC) offers a double-column structure with an integral rotary 2-pallet automatic pallet changer (2-APC) for high accuracy and high production in a compact footprint. Thermo-Friendly Concept is standard on this machine for dimensional stability throughout long, continuous runs. The VMC is equipped with a high-speed, high-power 40-taper 8,000rpm spindle with a 15hp liquid-cooled integral motor. Its rotary style 2-APC requires less space than shuttle-style APCs. A high-speed 20- position automatic tool changer (with options for 32 or 48 tools) features 1,574ipm rapid traverse. Tool breakage detection and auto tool compensation check the integrity of tools to maintain high-quality parts and less scrap generation. Twin augers remove chips from the machine tool quickly in high-production, automated environments.
