MIGHTY VIPER VT-50B X4000 BT CNC LATHE

This is a robust 2-axis CNC lathe engineered for heavy-duty production of large-diameter components. The machine features a substantial 60 hp spindle drive delivering 600 RPM maximum speed, providing the high torque necessary for demanding turning operations on large workpieces. With a maximum turning diameter of 35 inches and a swing capacity of 39.4 inches, this lathe accommodates significant workpiece dimensions, making it suitable for industrial-scale manufacturing of shafts, pipes, and similar components. The 153-inch machining length enables extended longitudinal operations, while the 12.1-inch bar capacity supports continuous automated feeding for production efficiency. The integrated tailstock provides essential support for longer workpieces during machining, enhancing precision and stability. Controlled by a Fanuc 32i-TB CNC system, the lathe operates on two linear axes—X for radial control and Z for longitudinal positioning—delivering the fundamental turning capabilities required for symmetrical and standard cylindrical parts. This configuration prioritizes power and rigidity over axis complexity, making it ideal for shops requiring reliable, high-capacity turning without the overhead of multi-axis systems. The combination of high horsepower, moderate RPM, and extended bed length positions this machine as a workhorse for precision manufacturing applications demanding consistency and repeatability in medium-to-heavy production runs.
