The strength of the VTC 100 Vertical Turning Machine lies in the production of large quantities of shafts with diameters up to 400 mm. Full integration into the EMAG machine concept including automatic loading and unloading of the workpieces offers a manufacturing system that is characterized by short travel distances and fast loading of via the turret. This is complemented by a powerful main spindle (34 kW, 144 Nm, 6000 rpm).
The overhead main spindle is located in the center of its upper section with a tailstock below. The shaft components are clamped between the work spindle and tailstock and supported by a steady. The machining operations are carried out by two turrets featuring 11 tool stations each and one additional station to accommodate the workpiece gripper that conveys the workpiece into and out of the vertical turning machine. The remaining tooling stations can be equipped with turning or driven tools.
