How much does the ROMI VTL 700MR cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the ROMI VTL 700MR 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
For large chucked parts that also need milling and drilling, Romi offers the ROMI VTL 700MR: the 700 mm (28 in) vertical turning center with a BMT 75 driven-tool turret. It appears in the catalogue together with the VTL 700ML, with one set of figures for the pair.
The live tooling is the strongest in the VTL range. An 11 hp / 8 kW motor delivers 51 Nm (37.6 lb-ft) to ER-40 holders that grip Ø 3 - Ø 26 mm tools, at 4 to 4,000 rpm. Twelve stations take either fixed or driven tools. Think of a wheel hub or valve body: turned, then drilled on a pitch circle and tapped, without a second machine.
Under the turret is the heavy 700 frame. The A2-11” spindle is driven by a 46 hp / 34 kW motor and reaches 1,043 Nm (769 lb-ft) between 2 to 2,000 rpm. Carriages slide on hardened and ground square guides, and rapids are 20 m/min (787 in/min). A chuck of 390 or 500 mm (15.4 or 19.7 in) holds up to 1,200 kg (2,700 lbs).
Two differences from the fixed-tool VTL 700R should be weighed. First, the reduction gearbox is not listed here, so the low-speed torque of that machine is not available. Second, square tools are 25 x 25 mm (0.98 x 0.98 in) on the BMT 75 disc where the VTL 700R takes 32 x 32 mm (1.26 x 1.26 in). Turning height is 635 mm (25 in), X travel 365 mm (14.4 in) and Z travel 700 mm (28 in). The machine weighs 7,000 kg (15,500 lbs), stands 3.5 m (138 in) high and needs 50 kVA.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
A 12-station BMT 75 turret. Axial and radial driven holders are ER-40 for Ø 3 - Ø 26 mm tools, the speed range for driven tools is 4 to 4,000 rpm, and the driven tool motor is rated 11 hp / 8 kW (S2 - 30 min. rating) with 51 Nm (37.6 lb-ft).
02
The specification table shows the ZF reduction gearbox speed ranges only in the VTL 700R column and a dash for the VTL 700MR. The driven-tool machine therefore lists the direct-drive figure of 1,043 Nm (769 lb-ft).
03
Floor space is 2.0 x 2.3 m (79 x 91 in) without chip conveyor, maximum height 3.5 m (138 in) and net weight 7,000 kg (15,500 lbs). Total installed power is 50 kVA.
04
The speed range is 2 to 2,000 rpm. A catalogue note restricts it to 1,500 rpm when the Ø 500 mm (20”) chuck is fitted. The spindle nose is ASA A2-11”.
