Its boasts a work envelope with a maximum turning diameter of Ø36.22 in and 33.86 in of swing over the saddle to accommodate large, odd-shaped workpieces used in construction work and aerospace applications. Highly rigid construction and powerful ball screws generate slideway movement to both axes for precise machining of heavy parts. Maximum machining productivity is achieved with a V12 turret and foolproof chip discharge. Designed for smooth chip flow, optional side or rear chip conveyors can be placed to match discharge direction based on shop floor requirements. Maintenance tasks are simplified with easy access to the air filter, hydraulic unit and coolant tank on the back of the machine. The standard Thermo-Friendly Concept automatically compensates ambient temperature changes to maintain tight tolerances.
Cycle times, lead times, and energy costs are significantly improved with the open architecture OSP-P300L control and ECO suite feature. Key features of the V920EX vertical lathe include:
- Max turning diameter Ø36.22/33.86 in
- Max swing Ø39.37 in
