Overview

The DN Solutions VCF 850 SR II is the 2,000 mm (79 in) model of the VCF 850 travelling-column range. What sets the range apart from the lighter VCF 5500 machines is the cross-section it can work in: 850 mm (33 in) of Y and 800 mm (31 in) of Z, over a fixed table of 2,500 × 870 mm (98 × 34 in) rated for 2,500 kg (5,512 lb).

Put the two side by side and the difference is clear. The VCF 5500 L has a table of the same 2,500 mm length but 580 mm wide, with 550 mm (22 in) of Y, 510 mm (20 in) of Z and 117.8 N·m (87 ft-lb) of torque, and it weighs 12,000 kg (26,455 lb). The SR II weighs 22,000 kg (48,502 lb), about 83% more, with slightly less X travel. The extra mass sits under a wider and taller working section. It is a machine for mould bases, machine frames, welded structures and thick plate, where the part is both long and deep.

The spindle runs to 12,000 rpm and rapid traverse is 40 m/min (1,575 ipm). That speed row is the only spindle figure in this model's column. Power, torque and taper are not listed, and on a machine chosen for deeper sections than the VCF 5500 L those are the figures that decide how hard it can cut. Ask for the spindle output diagram with the quotation.

DN Solutions describes the series with a B-axis head built on a roller gear cam, a rotary table, a centre partition and a pick-up magazine, and states 3- to 5-axis simultaneous machining for models with X axes of 2 m and 3 m. The SR II is the 2,000 mm (79 in) machine of that pair. Its table column gives no B-axis range and no rotary table size, so those have to come with the quotation. The footprint is 3,795 × 4,440 mm (149 × 175 in) and the height 3,253 mm (128 in).

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

850 mm (33 in) of Y and 800 mm (31 in) of Z, against 550 mm (22 in) and 510 mm (20 in) on the VCF 5500 L
Spindle speed up to 12,000 rpm, enough for small cutters and aluminium as well as larger tooling
Fixed 2,500 × 870 mm (98 × 34 in) table carrying 2,500 kg (5,512 lb)
22,000 kg (48,502 lb) of machine for a 2,000 mm (79 in) X travel
Series features described by DN Solutions include a roller gear cam B-axis, a rotary table and a centre partition

Limitations

X travel is 2,000 mm (79 in); the VCF 850 L II and VCF 850 LSR II reach 3,000 mm (118 in)
Table load of 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) is below the 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) of the VCF 850 L II
No spindle power, torque or taper is listed in this model's column, so cutting capacity has to be confirmed
No B-axis swivel range or rotary table dimensions in this model's column
Rapid traverse of 40 m/min (1,575 ipm) is slightly below the 42 m/min (1,654 ipm) of the VCF 5500 L

Best For

Mould bases and die plates within 2,000 × 850 mm (79 × 33 in) of X-Y travel Welded frames and structures needing up to 800 mm (31 in) of Z Heavy parts up to 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) that are better machined on a stationary table Multi-face work using the B-axis and rotary table DN Solutions describes for the series

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the VCF 850 SR II and the VCF 850 LSR II?

Length. The VCF 850 SR II has 2,000 mm (79 in) of X travel, a 2,500 × 870 mm (98 × 34 in) table, a 2,500 kg (5,512 lb) load and weighs 22,000 kg (48,502 lb). The VCF 850 LSR II has 3,000 mm (118 in), a 3,500 × 870 mm (138 × 34 in) table, 3,500 kg (7,716 lb) and weighs 24,000 kg (52,911 lb). Y, Z, rapids and spindle speed are the same.

02 Is the VCF 850 SR II a five-axis machine?

DN Solutions describes the series as capable of simultaneous machining on 3 to 5 axes, with a B-axis head and a rotary table, for the models with X axes of 2 m and 3 m. The table column for the SR II lists only X, Y and Z figures, so get the B-axis range, the rotary table size and what is standard confirmed in the quotation.

03 What spindle data is listed for the VCF 850 SR II?

Only the maximum speed, 12,000 rpm. This model's column has no power, torque or taper row. The VCF 5500 L lists 18.5 kW (25 hp) and 117.8 N·m (87 ft-lb), but those figures belong to that machine and should not be assumed here. Request the spindle power and torque curve to see what is available at the speeds your cutters run.

04 What part sizes suit the VCF 850 SR II?

Travels are 2,000 mm (79 in) in X, 850 mm (33 in) in Y and 800 mm (31 in) in Z. The table is 2,500 × 870 mm (98 × 34 in) and takes 2,500 kg (5,512 lb). Because the table is fixed and the column moves, heavy parts do not have to be carried by an axis.

05 How large is the machine itself?

The listed footprint is 3,795 × 4,440 mm (149 × 175 in) and the height is 3,253 mm (128 in). The machine weighs 22,000 kg (48,502 lb), so the foundation and the delivery route need checking early.
