KTMV-1500A Vertical Machining Center
Product Highlights
The KENT CNC KTMV-1500A Vertical Machining Center is engineered for power, precision, and reliability. It features a sturdy cast iron structure enhanced by FEA for excellent rigidity and vibration control, with generous X/Y/Z travels of 60.0″ / 30.0″ / 28.0″ (1,525 / 762 / 710 mm) and 708.7 in/min (18 m/min) rapid traverse on all axes. The belt-driven cartridge spindle, liquid-cooled to reduce thermal deformation, comes standard as an 8,000 rpm 40-taper, with optional upgrades to 10,000 rpm for high-speed machining or 3,500 / 6,000 rpm 50-taper spindles delivering up to 176 ft-lb (239 Nm) of torque for heavy-duty cutting.
The machine includes a cam-type automatic tool changer (ATC) with up to 32 tools and a T-to-T time of 3.0 seconds. The four-guideway Y-axis ensures stability and accuracy, and the large 63.0″ x 30.0″ (1,600 x 762 mm) table supports up to 4,121 lbs (1,869 kg). Operator convenience is enhanced by a wide-opening door, ergonomic design, and accessible maintenance points. Chip evacuation is efficient with dual augers and a flushing system, while optional features like linear scales, tool measurement systems, and FANUC controls make the KTMV-1500A a versatile solution for a wide range of machining needs.
