Vertical lathes/turning centers VLE50/VLE60/VLE80

Product Features

Suitable for large, thin, heavy and irregular workpieces, easy loading and unloading;
Due to workpiece gravity, fixture ensures tight clamping, delivering high precision and stable machining with short loading/unloading time;
No oval machining caused by self-weight inertia as in horizontal lathes, ensuring excellent roundness accuracy;
Stable machining for irregular workpieces with difficult clamping; simple fixture structure and low manufacturing cost.
High-rigidity square structure minimizes thermal deformation and vibration; enlarged chip removal angle with stainless steel plate for smooth chip removal and reduced bed thermal deformation;
Ergonomic layout for convenient workpiece handling
Occupies 1/2 less space than horizontal lathes;
Multi-functional configuration, optimal operation, lowest investment cost.
