Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Victor Taichung Vturn-S20/60 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
Victor Taichung's Vturn-S20/60 is an 8 in chuck box-way lathe with 640 mm (25.19 in) of turning length. The spindle nose is A2-6, top speed is 4,200 rpm and bar capacity is Ø52 mm (Ø2.04 in). By the two tables it is the Vturn-S20/40 on a longer bed.
The longer bed changes what the tailstock is for. On this model the programmable tailstock and its M.T. #4 quill can hold a real shaft, and the ratio of length to chuck size is the classic one for general turning. Weight is 4,800 kg (10,582.17 lb) as a 2 Axis machine and 4,860 kg (10,714.45 lb) with the C axis.
As elsewhere in the series, the C axis narrows the diameter range. The 2 Axis column gives Ø320 mm (Ø12.59 in) maximum and Ø230 mm (Ø9.05 in) standard turning diameter. The C Axis column gives Ø260 mm (Ø10.23 in) and Ø250 mm (Ø9.84 in). A shop that turns flanges near the Ø320 mm (Ø12.59 in) limit and also wants live tools should look at a larger model.
The maker states a swing diameter of 600 mm for the casting, rapid feeds of 20/24 m/min (X/Z) and a shortened belt drive for the spindle. The turret has 12 stations for □25 mm shanks. Control is a Fanuc 0i-TF Plus with a 10.4 in screen.
