Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Victor Taichung Vturn-45/325 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-45/325 is the 3,235 mm (127.36 in) bed of the maker's big-bore heavy lathe, with an A2-11 spindle nose and a 15 in chuck. Before anything else, a buyer should know that the table for this model is not consistent from column to column.
In the C Axis and Y Axis columns the spindle figures are the ones the Vturn-45 is known by: 2,000 rpm and Ø117.5 mm (Ø4.62 in) of bar capacity. In the 2 Axis column the table prints 2,500 rpm and Ø91 mm (Ø3.58 in), which are the figures of the smaller-bore Vturn-40/325. The maker's series notes say Bar capacity 117.5mm, Spindle speed 2000rpm for the Vturn-45 without exception. This page reproduces the table as printed. Get the bore of a 2 Axis machine confirmed in writing.
The remaining rows are regular. Maximum turning diameter is Ø620 mm (Ø24.4 in) for the 2 Axis machine, Ø580 mm (Ø22.83 in) with the C axis and Ø520 mm (Ø20.47 in) with the Y axis, and the turret holds 10, 12 and 12 tools on □32 mm shanks.
Weight rises sharply with live tooling on this length, from 17,000 kg (37,478.53 lb) to 19,300 kg (42,549.16 lb) for the C Axis machine and 19,500 kg (42,990.08 lb) for the Y Axis machine. Long tube and shaft work is the purpose, and a manual or hydraulic steady rest is optional.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table prints Ø117.5 mm (Ø4.62 in) for the C Axis and Y Axis machines and Ø91 mm (Ø3.58 in) for the 2 Axis machine. Victor Taichung's notes for the Vturn-45 state a bar capacity of 117.5mm, so ask the supplier to confirm the 2 Axis figure.
02
2,000 rpm in the C Axis and Y Axis columns. The 2 Axis column prints 2,500 rpm. The spindle nose is A2-11 with a 15 in chuck in every column.
03
