How much does the Victor Taichung Vcenter-G165 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Victor Taichung Vcenter-G165 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-G165 is the largest box-way vertical machining center the maker lists, a 16,500 kg (36,376.22 lb) machine with travels of 1,650 mm (64.96 in), 850 mm (33.46 in) and 900 mm (35.43 in). The table measures 1,700 x 800 mm (66.92 x 31.49 in) and carries 2,500 kg (5,511.54 lb).
Z travel is the figure that stands out. At 900 mm (35.43 in) it is taller than the Y axis is deep, which opens the machine to deep die cavities, tall housings and work stacked on angle plates. The T-slots step up as well, to 22 mm wide on a 150 mm pitch, for heavier clamping.
One detail of the table to note: Y travel is 850 mm (33.46 in) but the table is 800 mm deep. The spindle can therefore run past the table edge, and a workpiece may overhang slightly and still be reached.
Cutting hardware is common to the series. The gearhead BBT-50 spindle turns at up to 6,000 rpm with 15 / 18 kW (20 / 25 HP), all axes run on box slideways with Ø50mm ballscrews, and the magazine holds 24 tools of up to 15 kg (33.06 lb). The motor is no bigger than on the smallest G model, so cycle time on large parts comes from rigidity and depth of cut at low speed, not from power in reserve.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
1,650 mm (64.96 in) in X, 850 mm (33.46 in) in Y and 900 mm (35.43 in) in Z. The table is 1,700 x 800 mm (66.92 x 31.49 in) with 5 x 22 x 150 mm T-slots.
02
Up to 2,500 kg (5,511.54 lb) on the table. The machine itself weighs 16,500 kg (36,376.22 lb), so the foundation should be checked for the combined load.
03
A gearhead BBT-50 spindle with a maximum speed of 6,000 rpm and a motor rated 15 / 18 kW (20 / 25 HP). It takes tools of up to 15 kg (33.06 lb) from a 24-tool magazine.
04
A Fanuc 0i-MF Plus control with a 10.4 in screen is standard for the G series, and a version with a 15 in screen is on the option list along with linear scales and a 4th/5th axis interface.
