Vision Wide VHT-1250

Q: How much does the Vision Wide VHT-1250 cost?

The price estimate for the Vision Wide VHT-1250 is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/vision-wide-vht-1250#price; the request is passed to Vision Wide or an authorised dealer.

Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Vision Wide VHT-1250 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.

Overview

A 1,250 x 1,250 mm (49.2 x 49.2 in) table that carries 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) in its central area defines the Vision Wide VHT-1250, the middle model of the VHT horizontal machining center series.

Buyers comparing the three VHT sizes should know that only two rows of the table differ between them: table size and table load. X travel is 2,000 / 2,500 mm (78.7 / 98.4 in) (Opt.), Y is 1,300 / 1,600 mm (51.2 / 63.0 in) (Opt.) and Z is 1,300 mm (51.2 in) across the series. So the question for this model is simply whether 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) is enough. The VHT-1000 stops at 3,500 kg (7,716 lb); the VHT-1416 goes to 8,000 kg (17,637 lb).

How does a 1,250 mm square table sit inside those strokes? With the standard Y of 1,300 mm the spindle covers slightly more than the table width in height, and Z equals it, so a cube-shaped workpiece filling the table is close to the limit of what the base travels reach. The optional 1,600 mm (63.0 in) Y is worth pricing for tall parts.

The spindle runs to 6,000 rpm on a 22 / 26 kW (29.5 / 34.9 hp) motor. Rapids are 20 / 15 / 20 m/min, Y being the slowest axis, and the cutting feed rate is 10 m/min. Forty tools are listed, with magazines of 60, 90, 120, 180 and 240 as options.
