VTC Series

The new VTC Series combines the traditional power, rigidity and versatility of our
vertical turning center design with increased capacity, a flexible tooling system
and a choice of high-performance controls. The open workzone and wide access to
the part area facilitates operation and loading of parts. Rapid traverse rates on
the new VTC series reduce cycle times. The six models available offer a wide range
of machining capability and productive features.

WedgeLock Tooling System with 33,000 lbs of clamping force produces a rigid
connection between holder and the ram for heavy-duty metalcutting. The WedgeLock
system accepts standard modular tooling.

SIEMENS or FANUC controls. All of our models in the VTC Series offer a choice
of Siemens 840D or GE Fanuc 160i control.

Hydrostatic Ram with high dynamic stiffness and superior damping enables
precise, heavy cuts.
