MIKRON VCP 800W Duro CNC vertical machining center was built in 2004
in Switzerland by Mikron Comp-Tec AG. The machine is designed for
precise machining of steel, aluminium and the production of moulds and
tools. The machining process is performed by means of a reliable
spindle and precision cutting tools. The spindle, driven by a powerful
motor, rotates at a maximum speed of as much as 20000 rpm, ensuring
rapid machining while maintaining high efficiency at the same time.
Inside the fully illuminated workspace, there is also a large work
table with T-slots for easy workpiece and tooling mounting. All this
is complemented by an advanced HEIDENHAIN iTNC 530 CNC control with an
intuitive interface and an access to many advanced functions. The
MIKRON VCP CNC machining center weighs 9120 kg.
The MIKRON VCP 800W Duro is offered with an extensive range of
equipment, including, among others, the BILZ ThermoGrip shrink fit
machine with CoolDown module. This device enables fast and precise
clamping of tools in heat shrink toolholders using the plastic
properties of the metal. In this process, the holder is heated until
the diameter of its bore is increased, allowing the tool to be placed
freely. After cooling, the holder shrinks on the tool, creating a very
high and evenly distributed clamping force.
