The spindle is designed for high power and torque, with a base speed of 1400 RPM.
Optional Features: Options include higher RPM spindles (12,000 and 15,000 RPM), 4th and 5th axis drive packages, wireless part/tool probes, and a chip conveyor. Additional features like automatic central grease lubrication and a spindle oil chiller are also available.
Machine Construction: The V1000 features a C-frame fixed column design with heavy-duty linear guideways and ballscrews for optimal rigidity and durability. The structure is reinforced with strategically ribbed components and hand-scraped joint locations for increased stability.
Control System: The machine utilizes a Mitsubishi M70 control system with NAVIMILL conversational programming, supporting high-speed machining, tool life management, and various interpolation methods. It offers user-friendly features like background editing and program restart capabilities.
Specifications: The V1000 offers a working surface of 47.2 x 23.6 inches, with a table load capacity of 2000 lbs. It supports a maximum spindle speed of 15,000 RPM and features a tool change time of 2.5 seconds. The machine's axes are driven by powerful servo motors, providing rapid traverse rates and precise positioning.
Key Features: The BIG-PLUS® dual contact spindle system enhances tool stability and accuracy. The lubrication system uses centralized grease lubrication to extend component life. The design minimizes Z-axial movement, improving dimensional accuracy during high-speed operations.
Conclusion: The Bridgeport CONQUEST V1000 is a versatile and high-performance machining center suitable for demanding milling applications. Its combination of advanced features, robust construction, and user-friendly controls make it an excellent choice for precision manufacturing.
Machine Construction: The Bridgeport CONQUEST V480 APC features a robust C-frame fixed column design with high-quality cast iron components for enhanced rigidity and machining capabilities. It includes low inertia coupling for direct connection between ball screws and axial servo motors. The structure is analyzed using FEA techniques to ensure precision in geometrical accuracy and cutting surface.
Key Features: The machine is equipped with the BIG-PLUS dual contact spindle system for higher rigidity and accuracy, especially in high-speed applications. It uses centralized grease lubrication for extended component life and features a system to eliminate Z-axial movement, enhancing accuracy and tool life. Hardinge Rotary Systems can be integrated for 4th-axis operations.
Specifications: The machine offers a spindle speed range of up to 10,000 rpm with a direct drive spindle type. It supports tool holders of CT40 or BT40 type and features a fast automatic tool changer with a tool change time of 2.2 seconds. The machine's axes are driven by servo motors with specific acceleration rates and are supported by heavy-duty linear guideways and ballscrews.
Controls: The CONQUEST V480 APC is available with Mitsubishi or FANUC CNC controls, featuring advanced digital control systems for enhanced productivity. The controls include various programming and operational features such as conversational programming, high-speed accuracy control, and extensive editing capabilities.
General Specifications: The machine weighs 7,760 lbs and requires a power supply of 65 amps at 220 volts, 3-phase. It has a coolant tank capacity of 31.7 US gallons and features a pallet changer with a working surface of 23.6” x 15.8”.
Company Overview: Hardinge Inc. is a globally diversified company with operations in North America, Europe, and Asia. It is a leader in grinding solutions and designs and manufactures a range of industrial products, including Bridgeport machining centers.
