How much does the Campro NT-208 (Box) cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Campro NT-208 (Box) that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Campro NT-208 (Box) is the plain 2-axis version of the NT series: an 8 in chuck CNC lathe on a 30° slant bed with box ways, a 10-station hydraulic turret and a tailstock. It turns up to Ø420 mm (16.5 in) in diameter and 550 mm (21.6 in) in length.
Campro presents the NT series as a modular platform. The same one-piece slant bed can be equipped with linear or box guideways, a living turret with C axis, a Y axis or a sub-spindle, and this model is the starting point of that list. The maker's pitch for the bed is stiffness: high quality cast iron, reinforced ribs for heavy-duty turning, and a one-piece slant design that it says offers more rigidity and thermal stability than a flat bed with a raised wedge.
The spindle is an A2-6 unit with an 11 / 15 kW (20 HP) motor and a 4,200 rpm limit, and the hole through the draw tube is Ø52 mm. Those are the figures of the CPL-208 as well, so the choice between the two is about the ways. The CPL-208 runs on linear guideways and rapids at 24 m/min in X; the NT-208 (Box) is listed at 20 / 24 m/min for X / Z and is the one to pick for interrupted and heavy cuts.
Its tailstock is fully specified, with 460 mm (18.1 in) of body travel, a Ø80 mm (Ø3.1 in) quill moving 120 mm (4.7 in) and an MT-#4 taper. The machine measures 3,839 × 1,950 x 1,785 mm (W x D x H), weighs 4,200 kg (9,259 lb) and needs 20 kVA. No coolant tank or air figures are given in the table.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
It refers to the box guideways. Campro's NT series can be equipped with linear or box guideways, and the table for this model is headed NT-208 (Box way). The bed is a one-piece 30° slant casting that Campro says gives more rigidity and thermal stability and allows heavier cutting in a smaller footprint.
02
Maximum swing over the bed is Ø580 mm (22.8 in) and over the carriage Ø390 mm (15.3 in). Maximum turning diameter is Ø420 mm (16.5 in) and maximum turning length 550 mm (21.6 in). X axis travel is 210 + 20 mm and Z axis travel 570 mm (22.4 in).
03
A hydraulic turret with 10 stations, taking □25 / Ø40 mm (O.D. / I.D.) tooling. It carries no driven tools. For milling and drilling on the same platform Campro lists the NT-208M, which has a 12-station servo live turret and a C axis.
04
The table gives 3,839 × 1,950 x 1,785 mm (151 in x 76 in x 70 in) as width, depth and height. Machine weight is 4,200 kg (9,259 lb) and power capacity 20 kVA. Rapid traverse is 20 / 24 m/min (787.4 / 944.8 in/min) for X / Z.
