Vertical Turning Lathe
VTL Series
Macpower’s Vertical Turning Lathe Series is engineered for precise vertical turning, combining rigid cast-iron construction, strong cutting performance and dependable accuracy for machining large, heavy and demanding components.
VERTICAL TURNING LATHE
VTL Series
Macpower’s VTL Series is engineered for rigid, stable and accurate vertical turning across a wide range of component sizes. Its FG260 graded cast-iron base and column, reinforced with heavy ribs, provide strong damping and structural stability during demanding cutting operations. Available across turning capacities from 400 mm to 1200 mm, the series combines high-torque spindle configurations with precise X–Z movement to support consistent machining from heavy roughing to controlled finishing while maintaining dependable positioning and repeatability.

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.
