2022 TOYO VTC1612 CNC LATHES

Technical Description

The Toyoda (JTEKT Machinery) VTC1612 is a heavy-duty vertical turning center built for large-diameter, high-removal-rate turning of large workpieces. It uses a hydrostatic rotary table with C-axis indexing rather than a conventional chuck-and-bar spindle layout, and offers a puzzle-type automatic tool magazine with automatic head changes for turning, boring, and related operations in one setup. Maximum cutting diameter is 2,000 mm (79 in) and maximum cutting length is 1,600 mm (63 in), with a 1,600 rpm maximum table speed. X-axis travel is 800 mm (31 in) and Z-axis travel is 1,050 mm (41 in), with rapid feedrates of 12,000 mm/min on X and 8,000 mm/min on Z. The spindle/table drive is rated at 37 kW continuous and 45 kW maximum (approximately 50 hp continuous, 60 hp max), with 304 Nm of maximum torque. Overall machine footprint is approximately 6,650 mm long, 4,975 mm wide, and 5,175 mm high. The VTC series is part of Toyoda's vertical turning center line, aimed at industries such as heavy equipment, energy, and large-part manufacturing where workpiece size exceeds what a horizontal chucker lathe can handle.
