How much does the You Ji VTL1200ATC cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the You Ji VTL1200ATC 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 You Ji VTL1200ATC is a CNC vertical turning lathe with an automatic tool changer, a Ø1,250 mm (49.2 in) table and a maximum turning diameter of Ø1,350 mm (53.1 in). It is the entry point to the VTL series on You Ji's current list, a family the maker describes as a symmetric design for column and base.
On capacity alone it mirrors the YV1200: 1,200 mm (47.2 in) of turning height, Ø1,600 mm (63.0 in) swing, 5,000 kg (11,023 lb) loading weight, a 37/45 kW (49.6/60.3 hp) motor and 1-350 rpm. The VTL table adds one row the YV table lacks, a BT-50 tool shank, which tells a buyer what the ram and tool magazine accept. Tool holders from a 50-taper machining centre will not interchange without checking the pull stud, but the size class is the same.
Several builds branch from this base. ATC+C adds a C-axis function for drilling and milling with the table indexed or contouring. The column can be raised in two steps for taller work. An automatic pallet changer is listed for VTL sizes 1000 to 2500, so this model qualifies. The double ram (2R) version starts at the 1600 and is not offered here.
The machine measures 5,580 x 4,260 mm (219.7 x 167.7 in) on the floor and 5,400 mm (212.6 in) in height.

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The catalogue lists the tool shank as BT-50 and the machine carries an automatic tool changer (ATC). The table does not state the magazine capacity or the ram section, so those need to be confirmed with You Ji for a given tool list.
02
Table diameter Ø1,250 mm (49.2 in), maximum swing Ø1,600 mm (63.0 in), maximum turning diameter Ø1,350 mm (53.1 in), maximum turning height 1,200 mm (47.2 in) and maximum loading weight 5,000 kg (11,023 lb).
03
The capacity, motor and speed rows are the same in the catalogue. The VTL1200ATC belongs to the series You Ji describes as a symmetric design for column and base and lists a BT-50 tool shank. Its floor dimension is 5,580 x 4,260 mm (219.7 x 167.7 in); the YV1200 is 4,600 x 5,200 mm (181.1 x 204.7 in).
04
The model key lists APC, automatic pallet changer, for VTL sizes 1000 to 2500, which includes the 1200. Pallet dimensions and the added floor area are not in the catalogue table.
