NEW EMAG VT4/ VT200
Overview
Description
The VT 4 and the VT 200 are identical machines except that the VT 200 is equipped with a Siemens control unit. Both are designed to machine shaft parts up to 24.8” (630 mm) in length and up to 7.87” (200 mm) in diameter. Two tool turrets with eleven tool posts each are available for machining (one tool post on each turret is occupied by the workpiece gripper). This enables simultaneous four-axis machining of workpieces from two sides.
Workpiece grippers transfer the raw parts into the turning center and pick them up again after machining, reducing chip-to-chip times as well as related component costs.
Depending on the workpiece, this changeover time lasts only about six seconds. Simultaneously turning from two sides using 4-axis machining makes the actual turning process very fast, too. The vertical arrangement of the component also ensures long-lasting process reliability, since gravity assists chip flow, helping avoid chip build-up in the machine compartment.
