Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Victor Taichung Vturn-S26/60 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
The Victor Taichung Vturn-S26/60 is a 10 in chuck box-way lathe that the maker pitches at heavy cutting: it quotes a spindle output of 22kW with 574Nm. The table adds an A2-8 nose, 3,500 rpm, Ø75 mm (Ø2.95 in) bar capacity and 640 mm (25.19 in) of turning length.
Victor Taichung also says what changed from the model before it. The swing is 600mm where the earlier machine had 520mm, and the maximum turning diameter went from 410 to 430mm. The spec table agrees: Ø430 mm (Ø16.92 in) for the 2 Axis machine.
Diameter capacity survives the C axis better here than on the smaller S models. The C Axis column lists Ø420 mm (Ø16.53 in), only a little under the 2 Axis figure, though the standard turning diameter falls from Ø350 mm (Ø13.77 in) to Ø285 mm (Ø11.22 in). The turret count goes up with the C axis, from 10 tools to 12, on □25 mm shanks. Weight is 6,050 kg (13,337.95 lb) or 6,150 kg (13,558.41 lb).
Torque is what this machine is bought for. 574Nm at the spindle on a 640 mm (25.19 in) bed means large-diameter roughing of short, stiff parts: hubs, gear blanks, flanges. The tailstock has an M.T. #5 quill and rapid feeds are 18/24 m/min (X/Z).

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Victor Taichung states a spindle output of 22kW with 574Nm for the Vturn-S26. The spec table lists the maximum speed as 3,500 rpm on an A2-8 nose with a 10 in chuck.
02
For the 2 Axis machine, Ø430 mm (Ø16.92 in) maximum and Ø350 mm (Ø13.77 in) standard. For the C Axis machine, Ø420 mm (Ø16.53 in) maximum and Ø285 mm (Ø11.22 in) standard. Swing over the carriage is Ø480 mm (Ø18.89 in).
03
10 tools as a 2 Axis machine and 12 tools as a C Axis machine, in both cases on □25 mm shanks. Tool holders are included for the standard turret only, per the accessory list.
04
Yes. The Vturn-S26/110 has the same spindle and turret with 1,130 mm (44.48 in) of turning length. This model stops at 640 mm (25.19 in) and is the lighter of the two.
