How much does the Victor Taichung Vcenter-205 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Victor Taichung Vcenter-205 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 Victor Taichung Vcenter-205 is a travelling-column vertical machining center with a long fixed table: 2,050 mm (80.70 in) of X travel over a 2,500 x 550 mm (98.42 x 21.65 in) table. Y travel is 550 mm (21.65 in) and Z is 560 mm (22.04 in). The spindle is a 12,000 rpm BT-40 unit with 24 tools.
Because the column moves and the table stands still, the load does not ride on the X axis. The table is rated for 1,200 kg (2,645.54 lb), and a long part does not swing out of the enclosure as it would on a moving-table machine. The maker also points to easy installation of rotary tables and hydraulic fixtures.
The second way to use it is as two machines in one. Victor Taichung offers a central partition that divides the work area, so one end can be loaded while the other is being cut. The maker claims higher production from this than from a vertical machine with a 2-pallet changer. Rapid feeds of 30 m/min in all three axes carry the spindle between the two zones.
The spindle is directly coupled to its motor, rated 7.5 / 11 / 15 kW (10 / 15 / 20 HP). That is a light motor for a machine of 9,840 kg (21,693.46 lb), so think of long aluminium extrusions, rails and plates before heavy steel. Tools can weigh up to 8 kg (17.63 lb).

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 2,050 mm (80.70 in) of X travel on a fixed 2,500 x 550 mm (98.42 x 21.65 in) table
- Central partition allows loading at one end while cutting at the other
- Directly coupled 12,000 rpm spindle
- 1,200 kg (2,645.54 lb) table load that does not move with the axis
- Rapid feeds of 30 m/min (X/Y/Z)
Limitations
- Spindle motor is 7.5 / 11 / 15 kW (10 / 15 / 20 HP)
- Y travel is only 550 mm (21.65 in)
- 24 tools, with no larger magazine named for this model
- BT-40 taper, not the dual-contact BBT-40 of the Vcenter-305

Frequently Asked Questions
01
2,050 mm (80.70 in) in X, 550 mm (21.65 in) in Y and 560 mm (22.04 in) in Z. The fixed table measures 2,500 x 550 mm (98.42 x 21.65 in) and has 5 x 18 x 100 mm T-slots.
02
It divides the long work area into two zones so that the operator can change parts in one while the spindle cuts in the other. Victor Taichung says this gives higher production than a vertical machining center with a 2-pallet changer.
03
A BT-40 spindle directly coupled to its motor, with a maximum speed of 12,000 rpm and a rating of 7.5 / 11 / 15 kW (10 / 15 / 20 HP). The magazine holds 24 tools of up to 8 kg (17.63 lb).
04
The table lists an accuracy of 0.010 mm and a repeatability of 0.007 mm (±0.0035 mm) under ISO 230-2. Linear scales are offered as an option on the series.
