How much does the ROMI VT 6000 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the ROMI VT 6000 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
Six metres of chuck make the ROMI VT 6000 the largest machine tool in Romi's catalogue. The 6,000 mm (236 in) table turns parts up to 7,000 mm (276 in) in diameter as standard, and Romi offers 8,000 mm (315 in) as an option under request. Net weight is 237,000 kg (522,500 lbs).
Why choose it over the 5,000 mm machine, when both are rated for 90,000 kg (198,400 lbs)? The answer is support and reach. A wider table carries a large ring closer to its rim, which matters for thin sections that sag or distort when clamped far inboard, and programmed X travel grows to 4,410 mm (174 in). The C axis is rated at 108,000 Nm (79,650 lb-ft) for positioning such a mass.
The structure is hydrostatic where it counts: under the main table gear and on the vertical axis. An 8-jaw independent cast iron chuck holds the work. Two 54 kW motors drive it, 2 x 72 hp / 2 x 54 kW in the table, through two speed ranges, the first covering 0 to 25 rpm for roughing.
Height capacity is 4,000 mm (157 in). The forged ram, 350 x 350 mm (13.8 x 13.8 in) with 2,000 mm (79 in) of travel, carries an ISO 50 driven tool of 40 hp / 30 kW at 3 to 3,000 rpm, and the magazine holds 10 tools. The cross rail has 8 positions over 2,976 mm. Rapid traverse is 10 m/min (394 in/min) in X and Z. The site needs 20 x 13 m (787 x 512 in) of floor and 12.2 m (480 in) of clear height before crane hook height is considered.
