Okuma vertical lathes are excellent options for the safe and efficient machining of very large parts that, due to their dimensions or weight, cannot be machined on standard size lathes. They generally consist of a vertical axis and a table or turntable in a horizontal plane, which allows the assembly of bulky parts.

Okuma's VT1000EX vertical lathe excels in power, torque and thrust, making it the most stable and reliable model on the market for long operating periods. Otras de sus características, como su capacidad de maquinado, husillo reforzado y empuje axial, demuestran que el VT1000EX es la opción si de capacidad estructural se habla.

These types of lathes are ideal for cutting high-strength materials such as titanium, Inconel, and stainless steel. That is why it’s used for advanced manufacturing in industries such as: aerospace, agriculture, automotive, energy, molds and dies, among others.

The VT1000EX has a H1 ATC type turning head; a 36-position CAPTO-C8 tool changer; a husillo of 55 kW of power and maximum speed of 800 rpm; as well as a push force in the X and Z axes of 300% in relation to what a conventional vertical lathe would offer.

We invite you to meet the VT1000EX equipment at our CentroTec Monterrey and learn about the possibilities of this model for your project.
