The VISION WIDE SE-1618 3-Axis Double Column Machining Center is a high-speed, portal-type CNC milling machine engineered for high efficiency and mass material removal, particularly for components requiring an extended Y-axis width.¹ This model is specifically optimized for mold processing and the high-speed milling of aluminum alloys, delivering a 50% improvement in productivity through its robust structure and specialized mechanism.

Key Specifications and High-Speed Performance

The SE-1618 provides a substantial Y-axis width and exceptional material removal rates:

• High-Speed Cutting: Equipped with a 15,000 RPM direct-driven spindle and high cutting feed rates of up to 24,000 mm/min, making it ideal for fast, efficient removal of aluminum and other lightweight materials, significantly reducing cycle times.

Precision and Structural Features

The machine’s design ensures accuracy and reliability across its wider travel:

• High Accuracy: Delivers excellent positional precision, with P 0.007 mm positioning accuracy and Ps 0.003 mm repeatability, enabling delicate surface roughness and precise contour accuracy critical for mold finishing.
• Linear Scale Feedback: Features XYZ-axis linear scale feedback as a standard function, compensating for thermal and mechanical variations to guarantee high geometric accuracy.
• Automation Ready: Standard equipment includes a 24-tool magazine with an arm-type ATC and a caterpillar-type chip conveyor, ensuring high efficiency and continuous operation.
• Control System: Controlled by the reliable FANUC 0iMF PLUS system.
