Key Features & Technical Specifications
Our CNC vertical lathe is specifically designed for heavy-duty precision turning of aerospace components. Below are the standout features that set it apart:
- High-Rigidity Structure: The machine bed is made from Mechanite cast iron with ribbed reinforcements, providing exceptional vibration damping and thermal stability. This ensures long-term accuracy even when machining tough aerospace alloys.
- Dual Ball Screws & Preloaded Linear Guides: All axes use premium ball screws with preloaded linear roller guides for smooth, backlash-free motion. Positioning accuracy of ±0.005 mm and repeatability of ±0.003 mm are achievable.
- Powerful Spindle Drive: Equipped with a high-torque spindle motor (37–75 kW) that delivers constant torque across a wide speed range (10–2000 rpm). This allows for efficient cutting of both heavy roughing and fine finishing operations.
- Flexible Turret Options: Choose from 12-station hydraulic turrets or VDI turrets to accommodate various tooling configurations. Quick tool change reduces setup time and increases productivity.
- Advanced Control System: The machine is compatible with Siemens 828D or Fanuc 0i-TF control systems (optional), offering intuitive programming, powerful simulation, and real-time monitoring. Remote diagnostics are available.
- Integrated Chip Management: A built-in chip conveyor and coolant system efficiently remove chips and maintain temperature stability, prolonging tool life and improving surface quality.
- Safety & Compliance: Fully enclosed guarding, interlocks, and CE-compliant safety features ensure operator protection. The machine meets international standards for industrial machinery.

Advantages for Aerospace Manufacturing
- Enhanced Productivity: The vertical design allows gravity-assisted loading of heavy workpieces, reducing handling time. Combined with high-speed rapid traverses (up to 24 m/min), cycle times are minimized.
- Superior Surface Finish: High spindle rigidity and precision ground ballscrews enable consistent surface roughness as low as Ra 0.4 µm, meeting stringent aerospace surface requirements.
- Multi-Material Capability: From aluminum alloys to hardened steels and superalloys like Inconel 718, the lathe’s powerful spindle and robust structure handle diverse materials without compromise.
- Tool Life Optimization: The advanced coolant system and chip management reduce thermal buildup, extending tool life by up to 30% compared to conventional designs.
- Easy Integration: Optional robotic automation or pallet systems can be integrated for lights-out manufacturing. The control system supports M2M communication for Industry 4.0 readiness.
