The cornerstone of the VL 8 turning machine is a machine base of MINERALIT® polymer concrete that guarantees a vibration resistant process, providing for excellent tool life and outstanding machining quality. The pick-up spindle collects the workpieces from a lateral conveyor belt, transporting them the short distance to the machining area to ensure short chip-to-chip times. The machining process is highly flexible, allowing for the use of a large variety of tools. Machines are easily interlinked and the integration of a Y-axis in the turret allows for the “off-center” machining of more complex geometries.

Advantages
- Small footprint (chaku-chaku or close linear arrangement) for reduced floor space costs and more possibilities for machine layout
- Simple interlinking via central feeding and discharge belts and pick-and-place or turnover units = flexible in regards to future developments, lower automation costs and shorter tooling times
- Integrated automation at no additional cost
- Short transport distances = optimization of idle times
- Common parts strategy, standard spare parts warehousing for lower maintenance costs
- Ease of operation (extremely accessible machining area) and quicker machine set-up
- High energy efficiency reduces energy costs
