Lathe for the automated machining of chucked components
Lathe VSC 400 with vertical turning technology
The advantages of the very solid vertical construction of the VSC 400 lathe become apparent whenever the machine is used in practice. In the production (vertical turning) of gearwheels, chain wheels, coupling sleeves, components for CVTs, hinge pins, conrods, rocker arms, bearing rings or piston rings the fact that the tool is situated below the workpiece is a decisive point in favour of the machine. This layout of the VSC 400 lathe offers highly favourable chip flow conditions that make even dry machining an uncomplicated process. Furthermore, all machine modules – of which the lathe’s base in polymer concrete, with its integrated tooling systems, is the most important one – are of a rigid, vibration-resistant design.

Machining + automation + measuring:
The vertical pick-up lathe VSC 400 is equipped to suit individual production requirements.
Turning, hard turning, drilling/boring, grinding, milling, gear cutting, honing – all on a single lathe. Great productivity and exceptional precision in medium and large batch production: a large selection of available technology modules ensures that the lathe VSC 400 can be equipped to suit individual machining requirements. A link-up system comprising a variety of automation components allows for the machine to be integrated into production lines.

Advantages
- Every machine is a production cell that utilizes its pick-up spindle to load itself
- Short machining travel times and workhandling times
- Multifunctional production tool: turning, drilling, milling, grinding and other processes
- The workpiece travels, while the tooling systems remain stationary
- Ideal chip flow conditions, tools are located below the workpiece
- The work spindle with hydro-static guideway in Z-axis (optional) ensures outstanding component quality and a high tool life for soft and hard machining operations
- All accuracy defining machine assemblies are fluid-cooled
- Safe, wear resistant, maintenance-free machining area envelope
- Dry machining is easy with the VSC, work spindle and tools are ideally positioned for the process
