How much does the Campro VT-350 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Campro VT-350 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 VT-350 is a compact vertical CNC lathe: the chuck faces upward, the part is loaded from above and gravity seats it. It has a 12 in chuck on an A2-8 spindle and a maximum turning diameter of Ø350 mm (Ø13.8 in).
Vertical lathes of this size are built for short, heavy, disc-shaped parts such as brake discs, hubs, flanges and gear blanks. The figures fit that use. Maximum turning length is only 298 mm (11.7 in). The spindle motor is 22 / 26 kW (35 HP), a large rating for the size, with a 2,000 rpm top speed and a Ø120 mm spindle bearing diameter. The chuck row notes a blocked-center type cylinder, so this is a chucking machine and not a bar machine.
Campro says the machine uses a slant design over the bed for rigidity and chip disposal, a large-span bearing arrangement on an air-tight spindle, and a direct motor drive on the X and Z axes. Travels are 175 + 25 mm in X and 355 mm (14.0 in) in Z, both at 20 m/min. The servo turret has 12 stations for □25 / Ø40 mm (O.D. / I.D.) tooling and changes tools in 0.3 sec.
Floor use is the other attraction. The plan with chip conveyor is 2,115 × 2,735 mm with a height of 2,750 mm, and Campro points to space utilisation as a design goal. The machine weighs 5,000 kg (11,023 lb), has a 450 L coolant tank, and needs 30 kVA and a hydraulic source of 35~40 kg/cm². Campro's table for this model is metric only; the inch figures on this page are conversions.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 22 / 26 kW (35 HP) spindle motor on a 12 in chuck vertical lathe
- Vertical layout suits heavy disc-shaped parts and simple loading
- 12-station servo turret with a 0.3 sec tool change time
- Small footprint of 2,115 × 2,735 mm with chip conveyor
- Large 450 L coolant tank for a machine of this size
Limitations
