Product Details Parameters

Check the workpiece and fixture together

Axis travel and table size describe different limits. The 850 mm X travel is not the table length, and a part that fits on the table may still require additional clearance for clamps, cutters and tool changes. Check the complete fixture layout before choosing the machine.

For plates, brackets, housings or mold components, include any features that need angled access or multiple setups. Rotary equipment and special tooling should be specified separately in the quotation.

Core specifications

Item	VMC866
Table size	1000 x 550 mm
X-axis travel	850 mm
Y-axis travel	600 mm
Z-axis travel	600 mm
Spindle taper	BT40
Spindle nose to table	100–700 mm
Tool magazine in the supplied configuration	24-tool disc-type magazine
Machine dimensions L x W x H	2600 x 2380 x 2400 mm

Specify the spindle speed, permissible table load, CNC control, rapid traverse rates and installed options in the final quotation. Allow additional space for servicing and any separate accessories.

Configure coolant and chip handling for the job

The supplied configuration list includes options for through-spindle coolant, spindle oil cooling, chip conveyors, a larger tool magazine, mist collection and coolant filtration. Select these according to the cutting process and chip type rather than treating every option as standard equipment.

For deeper drilling, describe the hole diameter, depth and tool type. For mold finishing, include the required surface finish and typical tool sizes. These details help establish the required spindle and coolant configuration.

What decides the price of a VMC866

The VMC866 is configured to the workpiece and the fixture, so the quotation follows the options that were selected rather than a single catalogue figure. The lines below are the ones that move a quotation most.

Decision	What it changes in the quotation
Spindle package	The spindle speed and cooling arrangement are quoted with the machine. State the finishing requirement and the typical tool sizes, because the spindle package and the coolant arrangement are selected together.
Tool magazine	The tool count is quoted with the machine. A larger magazine is listed as an option, and the tool count should follow the number of tools the part actually needs across its setups.
Coolant system	Through-spindle coolant, coolant filtration and mist collection are options. For deeper drilling, describe the hole diameter, depth and tool type; for mold finishing, give the required surface finish.
Chip handling	Chip conveyors are options, selected by the material and the chip form rather than treated as standard equipment.
Fourth axis or rotary table	Any additional axis or rotary table is quoted separately, and it changes the fixture design and the part programme.
Workholding and fixture	The fixture is not part of the machine. Send the fixture concept with the enquiry so the table, the travel and the spindle clearance can be checked together.
Documents and training	Confirm the document set and the operator training arrangement in the offer, because both follow the control that was selected.
Packing and freight	Crating, the port of loading and the destination country sit outside the machine price. Confirm the shipping dimensions before booking freight.

We do not publish a single figure for the VMC866, because the machine is priced against the parts it has to produce. Send the drawing, the material, the fixture concept and the batch size, and the quotation will name the configuration it is priced against.

How to compare two VMC866 offers

Compare the spindle package, the tool count, the coolant arrangement, the chip conveyor and the document set before comparing the totals. Where one offer is lower, one of those five lines is usually where the difference sits.

Questions before ordering

Is the VMC866 a three-axis machine?

The configuration described here has X, Y and Z axes. Rotary tables and any additional-axis capability must be specified and checked separately; they are not included by implication.

Does a 1000 mm table mean 1000 mm of X travel?

No. The table is 1000 x 550 mm, while the X-axis travel is 850 mm. Check the cutting envelope and fixture clearances as well as the table dimensions.

What should I send for a quotation?

Send a part drawing, material, largest workpiece size, fixture weight, key tolerances, batch quantity and destination country. Include preferred control and tooling requirements if you already have them.
