Vertical Machining Centers

Vertical Machining Center refers to a Machining Center with a spindle perpendicular to the worktable. Its structural form is mostly a fixed column, and the worktable is rectangular without indexing rotation function. It is suitable for machining disk, sleeve, and plate parts. The vertical machining center worktable is a T-groove worktable with a cross slide structure, which has two sets of motion mechanisms responsible for moving perpendicular to each other. The X-axis feed worktable is covered by the guide rail responsible for Y-axis feed. Vertical Machining Centers generally have three linear motion coordinate axes and can be equipped with a rotary table rotating along the horizontal axis on the workbench for machining spiral parts.

Vertical machining Centers characteristics:
1. Vertical Machining Centers structural characteristics: Vertical machining centers refer to spindle perpendicular to the workbench, with a relatively simple structure, small footprint, and relatively low price. However, due to the spindle being perpendicular to the worktable, the rotation axis of the spindle is perpendicular to the worktable, making the clamping and machining operations of the workpiece more convenient. Vertical machining centers are usually suitable for processing small workpieces and parts that require high precision.
2.  Vertical machining centers application characteristics: Due to its simple structure, small footprint, and low price, vertical machining centers are usually suitable for processing small and medium-sized parts. It can perform various machining operations such as drilling, milling, turning, and grinding, as well as precision and semi precision machining with high precision requirements. Due to the fact that the spindle of a vertical machining center is perpendicular to the worktable, it is more convenient to clamp the workpiece and also helps to protect the tool and workpiece from damage.
3. Vertical machining centers processing characteristics: Due to its simple structure, small footprint, and low price, vertical machining centers are usually suitable for fine machining of small and medium-sized parts and high-precision machining of parts. It can perform various machining operations such as high-precision drilling, milling, turning, and grinding, as well as precision and semi precision machining with high precision requirements. Due to the fact that the spindle of a vertical machining center is perpendicular to the worktable, it is more convenient to clamp the workpiece and also helps to protect the tool and workpiece from damage.
