Overview
The Victor Taichung Vturn-F20/60 is a plain two-axis box-way lathe with an 8 in chuck. Its table is short: Ø320 mm (Ø12.59 in) maximum turning diameter, 640 mm (25.19 in) turning length, 4,200 rpm on an A2-6 nose, Ø52 mm (Ø2.04 in) bar capacity, a 12-tool turret and an M.T. #4 tailstock quill.
Victor Taichung sells the F series as its basic line, and the feature list reads that way. The bed is a 30˚ slant casting in one piece with box slideways. The spindle is belt driven with a shortened belt, which the maker says lowers noise and heat. The Z-axis ball screw is 40mm in diameter. A programmable tailstock and a chip conveyor are included.
No C axis, sub-spindle or live tooling is offered in the table or the option list for this model. That keeps the decision simple. If the parts are turned, faced, bored and threaded and nothing else, the machine covers them at 4,450 kg (9,810.55 lb) of weight.
The standard turning diameter is Ø230 mm (Ø9.05 in), which is the size the turret clears with normal tooling. Options to ask about are the part catcher, the bar feeder interface and higher pressure coolant.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Up to Ø320 mm (Ø12.59 in) in diameter and 640 mm (25.19 in) in length, with a standard turning diameter of Ø230 mm (Ø9.05 in). Bar passes through the spindle up to Ø52 mm (Ø2.04 in).
02
No. The F series is listed as a two-axis lathe, and neither the spec table nor the option list offers a C axis or driven tools. Parts that need milling belong on one of the maker's C-axis series.
03
The standard list names a 3-jaw power chuck with soft jaws, a programmable tailstock, a chip conveyor with cart, automatic forced lubrication, fully enclosed splash guarding and tool holders.
04
4,450 kg (9,810.55 lb). That is light enough for most shop floors, though the supplier's foundation drawing should still be followed when the machine is placed.
