“The You Ji VMT-1000+Y features a large 29.5” (750mm) Y-axis travel,” said Chief Marketing Officer Nicole Conrad. “3-axis 5-face capabilities coupled with a standard 24 tool arm-type ATC with 55 lb. tool weight capacity makes this machine a perfect offering for our aerospace and energy industry customers.”
About the VMT Series
The You Ji VMT provides 5-sided or 4+1-axis milling and turning of medium-sized workpieces in a single setup. Standard turning diameter and maximum turning height are 39.4” (1000 mm). The 30-hp double-wound Fanuc P Series main spindle motor delivers more torque at a lower RPM than a 50-hp single-wound motor. It’s powered by a 2-speed ZF planetary gearbox spindle drive. The 20-hp 50 taper milling spindle produces high torque. The machines come equipped with a standard 24” 3-jaw hydraulic chuck.
The vertical column and base are made from heavily ribbed Meehanite castings that minimize thermal distortion and dampen vibration. Smooth operation is virtually guaranteed complements of enclosed X-, Y- and Z-axis box guideways featuring hand-scraped mating surfaces, Turcite-B coatings and forced lubrication. The VMT’s simple design eliminates belts and gears in all three axes instead relying on servo motors to drive large 2”-diameter Class-3 precision ballscrews during operation. A fixed turning spindle and 3-axis moving column provide optimal chip removal and simplified operation.
The You Ji VMT series of 3-axis 5-face machining centers combined with vertical turning comes standard with the FANUC 31iT-B CNC control, a high-end control that features complex multi-channel multi-axis processing capabilities.
