Overview

The JTEKT FV1165 is a 3-axis vertical machining center with 1,100 mm (43.3 in) of X, 650 mm (25.6 in) of Y and 600 mm (23.6 in) of Z over a 1,300 x 650 mm (51.2 x 25.6 in) table. The standard spindle is a high-torque two-speed geared unit that tops out at 8,000 RPM. JTEKT does not show this model in its current lineup, and the listed figures have not been confirmed against a maker page.

The build favours cutting force over speed. A two-speed geared spindle gives up top speed for low-end torque, the base is Meehanite cast iron, and the Y axis runs on 4 box guideways. Rapids are 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z.

The table is longer than the X travel, 1,300 mm against 1,100 mm, so the two ends of a full-length part cannot both be reached without repositioning. Its 650 mm width equals the Y travel.

The taper is CAT 40 / BT 40 and the magazine holds 30 tools as standard. Option rows list a CAT50 taper, a 40-tool magazine and spindle speeds of 12,000 RPM and 6,000 RPM, without saying how they combine. Two rows disagree outright: spindle power appears as 15 kW (20 hp) and as 25.00 hp, and the control appears under two different names. Check both on the machine itself.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,100 x 650 x 600 mm (43.3 x 25.6 x 23.6 in) travels over a 1,300 x 650 mm (51.2 x 25.6 in) table
High-torque two-speed geared spindle as standard, running to 8,000 RPM
4 box guideways on the Y axis and a Meehanite cast iron base
Rapids of 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z
30 tools as standard, with a 40-tool magazine listed as an option

Limitations

The standard spindle stops at 8,000 RPM; 12,000 RPM is listed as optional
Spindle power is listed twice with different values, 15 kW (20 hp) and 25.00 hp
X travel of 1,100 mm (43.3 in) is shorter than the 1,300 mm (51.2 in) table, so full-length parts need repositioning
The maximum workpiece weight and tool change time rows carry no units

Best For

Steel and cast iron work that suits a geared 8,000 RPM spindle Plates and mould bases within 1,100 x 650 mm (43.3 x 25.6 in) Tall setups that need 600 mm (23.6 in) of Z travel Jobs that fit within 30 tools on the standard magazine

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the travels and table size of the FV1165?

The listed figures are 1,100 mm (43.3 in) in X, 650 mm (25.6 in) in Y and 600 mm (23.6 in) in Z, over a table of 1,300 x 650 mm (51.2 x 25.6 in). The table is longer than the X travel, so the spindle does not reach both ends of it in one setup.

02 What spindle does the FV1165 have?

The standard spindle is a high-torque two-speed geared type with a maximum of 8,000 RPM and a CAT 40 / BT 40 taper. 12,000 RPM is listed as optional, and option rows also show 6,000 RPM and a CAT50 taper. Spindle power appears as 15 kW (20 hp) in one row and 25.00 hp in another, so confirm it on the machine.

03 How many tools does the FV1165 hold?

30 tools as standard, with a 40-tool magazine in the option rows. A tool change time row is present in the table but carries no unit, so it is not quoted here as a time.

04 What guideways and rapid rates does the FV1165 have?

The Y axis runs on 4 box guideways and the base is Meehanite cast iron. Rapid traverse is 36 m/min (1,417 ipm) on X and Y and 30 m/min (1,181 ipm) on Z.
