Price estimate
We do not have a price for the ROMI VT 2000M 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
Wide, flat work is the territory of the ROMI VT 2000M. This vertical CNC lathe turns up to 2,200 mm (87 in) in diameter on a 2,000 mm (79 in) chuck, yet its maximum turning height is the same 1,500 mm (59 in) as on the smaller VT 1400M. Slewing rings, large flanges, gear rims and tyre moulds have that shape.
The table carries 15,000 kg (33,000 lbs). It is driven by two motors, listed as 2 x 42 hp / 2 x 31 kW, over a range of 1 to 250 rpm, and for heavy roughing there is a first range of 1 to 100 rpm. C axis torque is 39,000 Nm (28,765 lb-ft), which holds a part of this diameter steady while the ram spindle drills a bolt circle near the rim.
Reach across the table grows with the diameter: programmed X travel is 1,445 mm (57 in). The ram itself is unchanged, a 250 x 250 mm (9.8 x 9.8 in) section with 1,000 mm (39 in) of travel, an ISO 50 driven spindle running 3 to 3,000 rpm and a magazine of 20 tools. The cross rail is set in steps over 900 mm.
For the extra diameter the footprint grows only a little. The machine is 5.6 m (220 in) high, needs 8.7 x 5.7 m (342 x 224 in) of floor and weighs 43,000 kg (94,800 lbs). Rapids are 20 m/min (787 in/min). Linear roller guideways with an anti-vibration system carry the cross rail, the chuck is a 4-jaw cast iron unit, and programming is on a Siemens Sinumerik 840D sl.
