CNC Vertical Turning Lathe

Home > Products > Metal Cutting Machine > Turning Lathe > CNC Vertical Turning Lathe CNC

A Vertical Turning Lathe (VTL) is a type of lathe where the spindle is oriented vertically, and the workpiece is mounted on a horizontally rotating table. This design is ideal for machining large, heavy, and cylindrical workpieces, as gravity helps to stabilize and support the part during cutting.

Features:
  1. Suitable for large and heavy-diameter workpieces
    Capable of handling very large diameters and heavy parts—often over 1 meter—such as wind turbine hubs or railway wheels.
  2. High workpiece stability
    Low center of gravity offers superior stability during cutting, especially for heavy parts.
  3. Easy clamping and centering
    Vertical orientation simplifies loading/unloading with cranes and aids in centering large workpieces.
  4. Suitable for internal bore and end face machining
    Excellent for face turning, boring, and OD turning on large parts.
  5. Compatible with multi-station turret and CNC systems
    Modern VTLs support CNC control and tool changers for high automation and flexibility.
Applications:
  1. Large flanges
  2. Turbine components
  3. Train wheels, brake drums
  4. Gear housings, transmission casings
  5. Wind turbine components
  6. Oilfield and heavy machinery parts
