Overview

The Victor Taichung V-Center 55 is a large-table vertical machining center: 1,067 × 600 × 560 mm (42.0 × 23.6 × 22.0 in) of travel under a BT 40 spindle, with a 1,400 × 600 mm (55.1 × 23.6 in) table rated for 1,500 kg (3,307 lb). Victor Taichung does not show it in the current lineup, so read the listed figures as a description of an older machine.

The table is a good deal longer than the X travel, 1,400 mm against 1,067 mm, so the spindle cannot reach the full length of the table. That suits long fixtures, or vises parked toward the ends, but a part that needs machining along its whole length is limited by the travel and not by the table. In Y the two match at 600 mm.

The base spindle is listed at 6,000 RPM, with 10,000 and 12,000 RPM as options, and 22 / 15 kW (30 / 20 hp). At 6,000 RPM the machine points toward steel and cast iron with larger cutters. Aluminium and small tools call for one of the faster options, and an older machine has to be checked for which spindle it actually carries.

Tools sit in a 30-tool arm-type changer, with a 40-tool magazine optional. The feed rate row gives 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) without saying whether that is the rapid or the cutting limit. The control is listed as Fanuc 0iMF, with Mitsubishi or Siemens optional. At approximately 14,000 kg (30,865 lb), the machine needs a floor and a rigging plan to match.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

1,400 × 600 mm (55.1 × 23.6 in) table rated for 1,500 kg (3,307 lb)
600 mm (23.6 in) of Y travel, equal to the table width
560 mm (22.0 in) of Z travel for tall parts and fixtures
Spindle listed at 22 / 15 kW (30 / 20 hp) on a BT 40 taper
30-tool arm-type changer, with 40 tools optional

Limitations

Base spindle speed is 6,000 RPM; 10,000 and 12,000 RPM are options a given machine may not have
X travel of 1,067 mm (42.0 in) is shorter than the 1,400 mm (55.1 in) table, so the table ends are out of the spindle's reach
The 20,000 mm/min (787 ipm) feed figure is not identified as rapid or cutting feed
At approximately 14,000 kg (30,865 lb), siting and rigging need planning

Best For

Plates and mould bases up to the 1,500 kg (3,307 lb) table load Steel and cast iron milling at the 6,000 RPM base spindle speed Long fixtures or several vises on the 1,400 mm (55.1 in) table Parts needing up to 600 mm (23.6 in) of Y travel

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What are the travels and table size of the V-Center 55?

Travels are listed as 1,067 mm (42.0 in) in X, 600 mm (23.6 in) in Y and 560 mm (22.0 in) in Z. The table is 1,400 × 600 mm (55.1 × 23.6 in) and carries up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lb).

02 What spindle speeds are available on the V-Center 55?

The base spindle is listed at 6,000 RPM, with 10,000 RPM and 12,000 RPM as options. Power is given as 22 / 15 kW (30 / 20 hp) and the taper is BT 40. Check the nameplate of an older machine to see which spindle was ordered.

03 How many tools does the V-Center 55 hold?

The arm-type automatic tool changer is listed with 30 tools as the base magazine and a 40-tool magazine as the option. No tool diameter, length or weight limits are listed, so take those from the machine's own manual.

04 Which control does the V-Center 55 run?

The control row lists Fanuc 0iMF, with Mitsubishi or Siemens optional. Because three control families were offered, confirm which one is fitted before planning post-processors or operator training.
