The Skymach VMC1160 CNC Vertical Machining Center is engineered for large-envelope component machining, heavy-duty metal removal, and complex 3D mold manufacturing. Built upon a stress-relieved HT300 resin sand casting with wide column spans, the VMC1160 effortlessly handles milling, boring, drilling, and rigid tapping from roughing to mirror finishing.
Comprehensive Machining Capabilities
- Heavy-Duty & Precision Machining: Optimized for continuous heavy milling on steel forgings, cast iron housings, and aerospace-grade aluminum.
- Large Mold & Die Cavities: Superior geometric rigidity and micron-level motion control for deep cavity molds, stamping dies, and automotive parts.
- High Efficiency Batch Production: Rapid traverse rates of 24 m/min paired with a 24-tool disc ATC ensure minimal non-cutting idle times.
Key Engineering Highlights
- Taiwan High-Power BT40 Spindle: High-torque 11 / 15 kW spindle motor with dynamic balancing and pneumatic cylinder unclamping.
- Solid Resin Sand Castings: Premium HT300 bed with internal ribbing for outstanding vibration dampening and thermal stability.
- Precision Motion System: Precision ground ball screws and preloaded linear roller guideways ensure positioning accuracy of ±0.0075 mm (JIS) and repeatability of ±0.005 mm (JIS).
