The machine tool builder now offers a 30,000 rpm spindle with the Vertex 55X II, in addition to the 15,000 and 25,000 rpm choices. Customers can now take full advantage of the machine’s acceleration and deceleration characteristics and high speed machining functions. 

The line includes several configurations in the range, based on table sizes and types from 225 mm to 400 mm diameter. A choice of rotary axis drive systems — high torque geared type or direct drive — allows for the optimum machine configuration to suit the customer needs.
