How much does the PAMA Vertiram TT cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the PAMA Vertiram TT 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
TT stands for travelling table. The PAMA Vertiram TT is a portal-type vertical machining center whose two columns are fixed to the foundation while the table carries the part along X for 5,000 - 13,000 mm. PAMA describes the range as having a horizontal clearance between 2600 mm and 5100 mm and a vertical clearance between 2350 mm and 6000 mm.
Milling tables measure 1,500 x 4,000 - 4,000 x 12,000 mm and take up to 200,000 kg. That is a very heavy moving table, and it shows what the fixed portal is for: the bridge never moves in X, so its alignment to the foundation is constant along the whole part. The other route to the same part sizes is the Vertiram GT, where the gantry moves and the part stands still.
Cross travel of the headstock is 3,600 - 6,600 mm and the ram strokes 1,500 - 4,000 mm. The crossrail can be made mobile as an option, with a V axis of 1,100 - 3,600 mm at up to 4,000 mm/min. Rapids on X, Y, Z and W are up to 40,000 mm/min.
For turning there is a table of Ø1,250 - Ø6,000 mm rated for up to 100,000 kg at up to 350 rpm. The ram units are common to both Vertiram models: a driver ram with 1,175 - 2,494 Nm at 4,000 - 6,000 rpm, a C axis ram with up to 103 kW and 10,730 Nm, and a boring bar ram with a spindle of 130 - 160 mm.
The ram is guided by hydrostatic pads and has real-time compensation for thermal elongation. Attachment heads are thermally stabilised. Siemens, Heidenhain and Fanuc controls are available.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Milling tables up to 4,000 x 12,000 mm carrying up to 200,000 kg
- Fixed portal: bridge alignment does not change along X
- Rapids up to 40,000 mm/min on X, Y, Z and W
- Turning table of Ø1,250 - Ø6,000 mm for up to 100,000 kg
- C axis ram with up to 10,730 Nm, or a boring bar ram of 130 - 160 mm
Limitations
- Clearance between columns ends at 5,100 mm; the Vertiram GT goes to 10,100 mm
- The travelling table needs clear floor length on both sides of the portal
- The mobile crossrail is an option, and its rapid feed is up to 4,000 mm/min
- Turning table load of up to 100,000 kg is a third of the Vertiram GT's figure

Frequently Asked Questions
01
On the Vertiram TT the table travels, 5,000 - 13,000 mm, under a fixed portal. On the Vertiram GT the gantry travels over floor plates. The TT has 2,600 - 5,100 mm between columns and rapids up to 40,000 mm/min; the Vertiram GT has 3,100 - 10,100 mm and up to 30,000 mm/min.
02
Milling tables, 1,500 x 4,000 - 4,000 x 12,000 mm, have a load capacity up to 200,000 kg. The turning table, Ø1,250 - Ø6,000 mm, is rated up to 100,000 kg at a turning speed up to 350 rpm. Clearance under the ram face is 2,350 - 6,000 mm.
03
Three ram types are tabulated. Driver: Direct Drive, 66 - 82 kW, 1,175 - 2,494 Nm, 4,000 - 6,000 rpm. Integrated C axis: Direct Drive / 4 ranges, 66 - 103 kW, 1,175 - 10,730 Nm. Boring bar: 130 - 160 mm spindle, 800 mm (31.5 in) of W, 78 - 82 kW, 4,000 - 5,000 rpm.
04
As an option. The V axis stroke of the crossrail is 1,100 - 3,600 mm with a rapid feed of up to 4,000 mm/min. PAMA says the mobile crossrail increases versatility and adapts the spindle height to the workpiece.
