Overview
1,100 x 600 x 600 mm travels on a 1,300 x 600 mm table
The VESTA-1100 is a C-frame vertical machining center for parts machining, with a heavier frame and larger guides and ball screws than the VESTA-1000+. Travels are 1,100 / 600 / 600 mm over a 1,300 x 600 mm heat-treated table that takes up to four 6 in vices. The BT-40 spindle runs to 12,000 rpm at 18.5 kW and 117.8 Nm, with 10,000 rpm as an option. The PRO version runs to 15,000 rpm with 42 / 42 / 36 m/min rapids.

Features
- 01Heavier frameFrame weight is 3,466 kg, 25 percent more than the VESTA-1000+, and the machine stands on three support points to keep vibration low in heavy cutting.
- 02Larger guides and ball screwCompared with the VESTA-1000+, LM guides grow from 35 to 45 mm, the ball screw from Ø36 to Ø40 mm and the roller blocks from 4/4/4 to 6/4/6. Hwacheon rates X-direction rigidity at 63 N/µm, up from 41 N/µm.
- 031,300 x 600 mm tableThe heat-treated table takes up to four 6 in vices and carries 1,000 kg, or 800 kg on the PRO.
- 04Spindle choices12,000 rpm BT-40 at 18.5 kW and 117.8 Nm is standard and 10,000 rpm is an option. The PRO runs 15,000 rpm with air-oil lubrication and 42 / 42 / 36 m/min rapids.
- 05Coolant and chip layoutA 430 L coolant tank (300 L sub tank optional) feeds a 1.4 kW head coolant pump and a 2.2 kW bed flushing pump. Chip conveyors mount right, left or rear.
