SMTCL VTC3240 CNC LATHES

Technical Description

This CNC vertical machining center features a main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 12.600 inches and a maximum turning length of 15.700 inches, enabling the machining of substantial cylindrical workpieces. The spindle chuck diameter is 12.000 inches, providing secure clamping for large parts, while the maximum swing of 19.600 inches allows clearance for oversized components during rotation. The spindle operates at speeds up to 2,000 RPM, delivering efficient material removal rates, and is powered by a 25.00 HP motor, ensuring robust performance for demanding turning operations. The machine is equipped with a 12-station tool turret, supporting a wide range of cutting tools, though only one tool can perform simultaneous cutting at a time. Designed as a 2-axis CNC vertical machining center, it offers X-axis travel of 11.800 inches and Z-axis travel of 17.700 inches, providing precise control over tool positioning for accurate turning, facing, and profiling operations. This configuration is ideal for producing symmetrical parts with high repeatability and tight tolerances, making it suitable for general-purpose CNC turning applications in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing.
