Precision lathe with CNC, VT-8, Alex-Tech

The application of the VT-8 lathe is optimal for manufacturing parts for the aviation and watchmaking industries, measuring and medical instruments, radio-electronic devices, automotive components, and other precision parts.

The bed and all housing parts are cast from high-quality cast iron. The lathe’s guideways are made of tool steel, hardened, and ground to achieve high precision, extending the service life to 10 years without requiring refurbishing. The lead screws on the X-axis are manufactured to C1 class, and on the Z-axis to C3 class, to achieve maximum accuracy. High-precision spindle bearings are lubricated with special grease to prevent thermal deformation of the spindle, ensuring rigidity and long-lasting operation.

Possible Additional Equipment:

• Robot manipulator or gantry loader to reduce loading/unloading time, which is especially important when processing small parts where idle time constitutes a significant portion of the relatively short machine time.
• Tool block with its own drive for machining parts with axial tools.
• Automatic bar feeder for mass and series production of parts.
• Additional guideways for sleds with cutoff tool for bar processing lathe.
• 3-jaw or collet chuck.
• 8-position turret head or linear tool set (GANG TYPE).

Key Features:

• The CNC system is integrated into the lathe.
• The coolant tank is structurally part of the bed, providing ample space for chip collection and removal via a chip conveyor.
• The lathe layout is designed in strict accordance with engineering calculations, requiring a floor space of 2×2 meters, ensuring optimal workplace ergonomics for both operation and maintenance.

Thanks to its advanced design, durability, and efficiency, the VT-8 Precision CNC Lathe is an ideal choice for various industrial applications requiring high precision and reliability.
