How much does the Ganesh VH-650B CNC cost?

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Ganesh VH-650B CNC that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Ganesh VH-650B CNC — price

Price estimate: uncertain

We have no price for the Ganesh VH-650B CNC that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so this page shows no number rather than a guess. A quote from Ganesh or an authorised dealer is the reliable figure.

What moves the final price

  • Spindle, control and probing options
  • Tool changer capacity and tooling package
  • Automation — pallet changers, bar feeders, robot cells
  • Freight, rigging, installation and training
  • Region, dealer and time of year

Overview

Sitting between the two other Ganesh vertical/horizontal CNC mills, the VH-650B CNC pairs an 86.6 x 23.6 in table with 15 HP on each of its two spindles. X travel is 66.9 in (1,700 mm), Y 41.3 in (1,050 mm) and Z 37.4 in (950 mm), and the table is rated for 4,409 lb (2,000 kg). Weldments, machine bases and die blocks of that size are the natural work.

The step up in size is larger than the model number suggests. The VH-450 CNC has 10 HP spindles and 1 HP (0.75 kW) axis motors; this machine has 15 HP and 3.8 HP (3.0 kW), and at 17,636 lb (8,000 kg) net it weighs twice as much. The spindles here run 45 - 1,500 rpm in 18 speeds, a stepped gearbox where the smaller machine is listed with variable speed.

The cutting envelope is given as 66.9 in (1,700 mm) by 24.4 in (620 mm) by 25.1 in (640 mm). The vertical spindle sits 25.6 in (650 mm) from the slide surface, a deep throat that lets the cutter reach the middle of a wide plate. Its nose clears the table by up to 30.5 in (775 mm). The horizontal spindle nose travels up to 37.4 in (950 mm) from the table, and its centerline is 13.18 in (335 mm) from the table edge.

The taper is NT50 or BT50, an air power drawbar is standard, the head gears are hardened and ground, and lubrication is automatic. Feed and rapid share a 1 - 236 ipm (30 - 6,000 mm/min) range. A Fanuc OiMF with a 10.4 in display runs the machine. It needs space: 203.9 x 160.6 x 125.1 in (5,180 x 4,080 x 3,180 mm).

Frequently Asked Questions

01 How large a part can the VH-650B CNC take?

The table is 86.6 x 23.6 in and carries 4,409 lb (2,000 kg). Travels are 66.9 in (1,700 mm) in X, 41.3 in (1,050 mm) in Y and 37.4 in (950 mm) in Z, and the listed cutting envelope is 66.9 in (1,700 mm) long, 24.4 in (620 mm) wide and 25.1 in (640 mm) high.

02 What are the spindle specifications?

Both the vertical and the horizontal spindle are rated 15 HP and run 45 - 1,500 rpm in 18 speeds, with an NT50 or BT50 taper. The vertical spindle nose is 0 - 30.5 in (0 - 775 mm) from the table and the horizontal spindle nose 0 - 37.4 in (0 - 950 mm).

03 How does it compare with the VH-780 CNC?

The spindles are the same, 15 HP at 45 - 1,500 rpm. The VH-780 CNC is the bigger machine, with a 102.3 x 27.5 in (2,600 x 700 mm) table, 78.7 in (2,000 mm) of X travel and a 6,615 lb (3,000 kg) table load, against 66.9 in (1,700 mm) and 4,409 lb (2,000 kg) on the VH-650B CNC.

04 Which control and standard features does it have?

A Fanuc OiMF CNC control with a 10.4 in display. The feature list also names a heavy-duty BT 50 taper spindle, hardened and ground gears in the milling head, an automatic lubrication system and an air power drawbar as standard.
