BTMC-E1502B Gantry Machining Center: 2 Metre Mould Capacity
The BTMC-E1502B gantry machining center provides 2000 mm X travel, 3500 kg table load plus flexible BT50 or BT40-12000 rpm spindle options for moulds and structural parts.
The BTMC-E1502B sits in the middle of VITOP's E Series fixed-beam gantry line. With 2000 mm of X travel, a 1200 x 2100 mm table and a 3500 kg load rating, it takes the mould bases, die sets and frames that are one size too big for a vertical machining center, at an economical gantry price point.

Spindle Options Decide the Job Mix
The standard BT50-190 belt spindle at 6000 rpm with a 4:1 ratio covers general mould and plate milling with an 18.5 kW motor behind it. If your work is mostly finishing and electrode pockets, the optional direct BT40 spindle at 12000 rpm is the better pick. If you rough big mould cavities in hard steel all day, choose the gear-head BT50-190 at 6000 rpm with its 4.4:1 ratio for torque. One machine platform, three job profiles.
Structure and Guides
Both X and Y axes ride on twin 55 mm roller guides, which carry the heavy table loads and hold finish during deep cuts. The Z axis uses a rectangular guide rail as standard, with optional 2 or 4 linear rail configurations where your duty cycle suits them. The 7 kW X-axis motor has headroom for moving a loaded table plus part at the 12 m/min rapid rate.
As with every VITOP machine, the HT300 resin-sand casting is double aged before machining, guideways are hand-scraped and matched, and the finished machine is verified with laser interferometry and ballbar testing. The ±0.003/300 mm repeatability is a tested figure, not an estimate.
Control and Operation
Mitsubishi M80VA/M80VB controls come standard; FANUC 0i-MF (1A/3A/3B) is optional. If your shop already runs FANUC on its verticals, keeping the same control family shortens training and lets programs move between machines without post-processor work.
Good Fit For
- Mould bases up to roughly 2 m square, with fixture room inside the 1480 mm gantry width
- Press dies, gauges and check fixtures on 1200 x 2100 mm plates
- Structural components and machine frames up to 3.5 t per setup
If your parts regularly exceed the 2000 mm X travel, look at the larger S Series models. Otherwise send us your drawings and preferred spindle duty, and we will quote the BTMC-E1502B configuration that matches.
Ordering Support
The BTMC-E1502B is built in the same factory system as the rest of the VITOP range: HT300 resin-sand castings aged twice, hand-scraped and matched guides, and final laser and ballbar verification, all within ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 certified processes on a 30000 m² site. If your fixtures or parts need changes to the standard layout, OEM and ODM support covers configuration discussions at order stage. Include your part envelope, heaviest setup and preferred control when you request the quotation, so the first proposal is the right one and the delivery conversation starts from real numbers.
