•Spindle Taper – BT30 with spindle lock for easy single hand drawbar operation. 
==Features==


•Spindle Speed Range RPM – 100 to 5140. Computer controlled spindle speed and direction with regenerative braking from a 1.5 hp induction motor (2 hp peak).
*NEMA 34 stepper motors on X, Y and Z
 
*Single Shot Lube Pump
•Cartridge style spindle with V-belt transmission. There are two overlapping speed ranges. Low belt speed is 100 – 2000 RPM, high belt is 250 – 5140 RPM 
*15 point lubrication. Each axis has an oil distribution channel milled full length on left and right vertical and horizontal surfaces (all 4 sliding surfaces) plus an oil line plumbed directly to the ball nut assembly
 
*Precision ground ball screws in the X, Y and Z motion. ISO/DIN P4 grade.
•Spindle Center to Column Face – 11"
*Complete way covers
 
*Slide ways are a bonded low friction surface (PTFE filled acetyl), hand scraped slide ways with milled oil distribution slots.
•Maximum Weight of Workpiece – 500 lbs. 
*Forward opening electrical cabinet. This unique design allows service even when the machine is placed near to a wall.
 
*Computer controlled spindle speed and direction with regenerative braking from 1.5 hp induction motor (2 hp peak)
•Max spindle nose to table – 17" 
*Cartridge style spindle with V-belt transmission. There are two overlapping speed ranges. Low belt speed is 100 – 2000 RPM, high belt is 250 – 5140 RPM
 
*Spindle safety is enhanced with a tool change safety interlock and key switch lockout. Main spindle contactor (VFD power) is automatically disengaged when operator is changing a tool. Spindle M-codes or manual spindle start will reengage VFD power automatically after tool change is completed.
•Forward opening electrical cabinet. This unique design allows service even when the machine is placed near to a wall.
*Operator console has manual override for all spindle controls.
 
•Weight net / shipping. – 1130 / 1325 lbs
 
•Operating temperature range 45 to 100 oF (7 to 38 oC)
 
•Rapid traverse X, Y = 90 IPM, Z = 65 IPM
 
•NEMA 34 stepper motors on X, Y and Z
 
•Single Shot Lube Pump
 
•15 point lubrication. Each axis has an oil distribution channel milled full length on left and right vertical and horizontal surfaces (all 4 sliding surfaces) plus an oil line plumbed directly to the ball nut assembly.
