DownloadVertical Lathes with a Modular Design for Efficient Production
The modular concept of the VL 4 makes it all possible: the vertical turning machine can be equipped to suit a variety of applications. It is compact in design yet powerful and features an integrated automation solution with the pick-up spindle. The machine base out of the polymer concrete MINERALIT® ensures vibration-resistant machining, an extended tool life and outstanding machining quality. The main spindle is mounted on the front compound slide and carries out the dynamic movements required in X- and Z-axis with an optional Y-axis.
