The price estimate for the Feeler VMX-580APC 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/feeler-vmx-580apc#price; the request is passed to Feeler or an authorised dealer.
Feeler's table lists a maximum loading weight of 120 kg (265 lb) on a 580 x 410 mm (22.8 x 16.1 in) pallet. That figure includes the fixture. For comparison, the fixed table of the VMX-580 is rated for 300 kg.
The series description says the VMX-580APC and VMX-820APC have automatic pallet changers with exchange times of 6 and 10 seconds. The sentence covers both machines and the spec table has no pallet-change row, so ask Feeler which figure is this model's.
No. X, Y and Z are 580, 420 and 510 mm, the same as on the VMX-580. Z does not shrink here as it does on the larger APC model: the VMX-820APC lists 505 mm of Z where the VMX-820 lists 560 mm.
A 12,000 rpm spindle with a 7/24 taper No.40, which Feeler describes as a high-speed direct-drive BBT40 spindle, and a 20-tool magazine. Spindle power and torque are not given on the series page.
