Macpower introduces VTX Series ā CNC Vertical Turning Centres designed by team that has abundance experience in manufacturing CNC turning centres and machining centres. This machine is ideal for turning heavy, large diameter components. Rugged & graded cast iron structure imparts high mechanical performance during roughing to finishing operations retaining long term accuracy and precision. Wide access to chuck zone facilitates easy loading and unloading of heavy components This machine occupies smaller floor space than a horizontal turning machine that can turn comparable sized parts.
Overview
RIGID Structure
Sturdiness of the foundation determined the soundness of the structure. The major construction parts are based on FG260 grade cast iron, to ensure optimum harmonic stability and maximum damping during cutting. Base and column are reinforced with heavy ribs for stability and least distortion. The uniform dense, fine graded casting distributed stress and heat throughout the machine structure.

High Capacity Accurate Spindle
The cartridge type high precision spindle is supported by the double row cylindrical roller bearing and bi-directional angular thrust bearing. Radial and axial loads are accommodated individually. The bearings are grease lubricated for life. The high torque, constant power supplying AC spindle motor minimizes spindle acceleration/deceleration rate, also enabling strong machining ability.
Double Anchored Ball Screws
Ball Screws are directed by direct coupled AC servo motor with flexible coupling. This greatly improves positioning accuracy, and provides more accurate threading and contouring. Ball Screws are anchored at both ends and inspected for parallelism with axis guide. Pre-loaded ball nuts eliminate backlash.
Advance Inspection Technology
Laser Calibration is carried out to insure the linear accuracy, providing accurate compensation for pitch and backlash. The machine facilities the attainment of positional accuracy up to 0.01 mm / 300 mm and repeatability accuracy up to 0.007 mm.
Heavy Duty Roller LM Guideways
All axes are furnished with precise and heavy load capacity re-circulating roller guide ways enabling high acceleration-de acceleration and hence better rigidness
Advance Inspection Technology
Laser Calibration is carried out to insure the linear accuracy, providing accurate compensation for pitch and backlash. The machine facilities the attainment of positional accuracy up to 0.010 mm / 300 mm and repeatability accuracy up to 0.007 mm.
Reliable Turret
VTX Series of machines are equipped with HighSpeed and High Precision Bidirectional tool turret that indexes in either direction for shortest indexing time. It is completely enclosed & robust in mechanism. Massive 8 stations fast indexing sturdy bidirectional turret is offered as a standard feature. Turret ensures robust metal cutting potential and high yield.
Efficient Chip Disposal
A greater inclined slope results in easy chip removal from the working area, and a wider chip exit is able to handle higher chip volumes. Improved chip disposal system increase the convenience of operation and maintenance for chip disposal even when applying various automation application. Gravity fall of chips with well-designed bed slope with hollow centre for effective chip evacuation.
