How much does the Victor Taichung Vturn-45/220 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Victor Taichung Vturn-45/220 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 Vturn-45/220 pairs a Ø117.5 mm (Ø4.62 in) spindle bore with 2,275 mm (89.56 in) of turning length. It is a 2,000 rpm machine with an A2-11 nose and a 15 in chuck, made for long tubular parts and heavy shafts.
A long bed and a large bore suit each other. Stock that is longer than the bed can sit partly inside the spindle, so a tube or a bar can be worked on its end without being cut to length first. Hydraulic cylinder barrels, drill pipe ends and large threaded connections are the natural parts. For still bigger stock, the maker offers a large spindle bore of 135mm.
Across the three configurations the table lists Ø620 mm (Ø24.4 in), Ø580 mm (Ø22.83 in) and Ø520 mm (Ø20.47 in) of maximum turning diameter for the 2 Axis, C Axis and Y Axis machines. The turret has 10 tools in the first case and 12 in the others. Weight is 15,500 kg (34,171.60 lb), 15,600 kg (34,392.07 lb) and 15,800 kg (34,832.99 lb).
Thread and groove work on tube rarely needs live tools, so the 2 Axis machine will be the usual choice here. Where flanges need bolt holes or shafts need keyways, the C axis with live tooling is on the option list. A steady rest, manual or hydraulic, is also optional.
