2006 Bridgeport VMC-1000P CNC Vertical Machining Center

The 2006 Bridgeport VMC-1000P is a robust vertical machining center built to handle demanding midsize production with consistency. With a working envelope of 40 inch X-axis, 20 inch Y-axis, and 20 inch Z-axis, this machine features a CAT 40 spindle capable of reaching up to 8000 RPM, making it suitable for both high-speed finishing and heavier material removal. The unit comes 4th Axis ready, allowing for future expansion into indexed or continuous rotary machining. It is further supported by a chip conveyor to ensure uninterrupted operation and clean chip evacuation, all in a compact and durable Bridgeport frame.

Compared to lower-class machines like the Haas Mini Mill, the VMC-1000P offers a significantly larger table, heavier build quality, and better spindle horsepower, offering a superior solution for toolroom and production applications that require larger part envelopes and greater rigidity.
