OverviewThe VMC 1580 is a high-speed vertical CNC machining center engineered for medium to large components. It offers X/Y/Z travels of 1500 × 800 × 700 mm and is suited to machining large dies, structural plates, aluminum frames and machine parts. High feed and rapid traverse capabilities reduce non-cutting times in production.
Highlighted Performance- Rapid traverse: 20 m/min (X/Y), 16 m/min (Z)
- Maximum feed rate: 10,000 mm/min
- Table and support designed for large workpieces and heavy fixtures
Key Features- Generous axis travel (1500×800×700 mm): Accepts large molds, plate-type workpieces and assemblies.
- Ultra-fast traverse speeds: X/Y 20 m/min · Z 16 m/min to minimize idle time.
- High feed capability (10,000 mm/min): Efficient roughing and finishing of aluminum, steel and general engineering materials.
- Heavy-duty cast iron structure: Rigid base and column absorb vibration for improved dimensional accuracy.
- Flexible tooling system: Automatic tool changer options (typical 24–40 tools) for multi-step machining in a single setup.
Recommended Configurations- Spindle system: High-precision spindles (SKF, NSK), center coolant spindle options.
- Feed system: Servo or stepper motors, linear guideways and ball screws.
- Cooling system: Centrifugal or vibration pump; compatible with water-soluble and oil-based coolants.
- CNC control: Compatible with FANUC, Siemens, GSK, KND, SYNTEC, Mitsubishi, etc.
- Measuring & monitoring: Heidenhain linear scales, Renishaw probes (OMP60/TS27R), tool breakage detection options.
- Other options: Chip conveyor, oil mist collector, oil cooler, coolant tank, multi-joint robot arm.
Application Case (example)- Workpiece: Aluminum alloy mold base 1420 × 780 × 90 mm.
- Setup: VMC 1580 with 10,000 rpm spindle, 30T ATC, Siemens controller.
- Results: Full roughing and finishing in one setup; surface roughness Ra ≤ 1.2 μm; flatness within 0.01 mm; cycle time reduced by ~27% and manual finishing decreased.
