How much does the You Ji YV200 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the You Ji YV200 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 YV200 is the smallest machine in the YV range of CNC vertical turning lathes: an 8 in (203 mm) chuck, a maximum turning diameter of Ø250 mm (9.8 in) and 200 mm (7.9 in) of turning height. It is a chucker for small discs, hubs, flanges and bearing-size rings that sit flat on a vertical spindle and load by gravity.
Speed is what separates it from the rest of the family. The spindle range is 50-3,500 rpm, the highest in the YV table, on an 11/15 kW (14.8/20.1 hp) motor. The YV250 shares that motor but stops at 2,500 rpm, so the YV200 is the one to pick when the parts are small enough that surface speed, not torque, limits the cut.
Tooling follows the size. In You Ji's model key the 200 can be built as type B with gang tools, as type E with a horizontal turret, or as E+C with a horizontal VDI power turret. The vertical turret (type A) starts at the 250, and the automatic tool changer versions start at the 500. A buyer who needs driven tools on this frame is therefore looking at the E+C build.
The table load is 200 kg (441 lb), which has to cover the chuck jaws, any fixture and the part. Swing is Ø400 mm (15.7 in), so there is room for jaws and clamps around a full-diameter workpiece. The machine stands on 2,880 x 1,530 mm (113.4 x 60.2 in) of floor and is 2,460 mm (96.9 in) tall, small enough to line up in a row for a cell.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 50-3,500 rpm spindle range, the fastest in the YV table, suits small-diameter work
- Footprint of 2,880 x 1,530 mm (113.4 x 60.2 in) at 2,460 mm (96.9 in) height keeps a multi-machine line short
- Offered with gang tools (B), a horizontal turret (E) or a horizontal VDI power turret (E+C)
- Ø400 mm (15.7 in) swing leaves clearance for jaws around a Ø250 mm (9.8 in) part
Limitations
- Turning diameter stops at Ø250 mm (9.8 in) and height at 200 mm (7.9 in); the YV250 is the next step
- Table load of 200 kg (441 lb) includes workholding, which rules out heavy fixtures
- No vertical turret (A) or ATC build at this size: those start at the 250 and the 500 in the maker's key
- The 11/15 kW (14.8/20.1 hp) motor is the smallest in the YV range

Frequently Asked Questions
01
The table gives a maximum turning diameter of Ø250 mm (9.8 in), a maximum turning height of 200 mm (7.9 in) and a swing of Ø400 mm (15.7 in). The standard chuck is 8 in (203 mm) and the table load is 200 kg (441 lb), chuck tooling and part together.
02
You Ji's model key lists three for this size: B, gang tools; E, a horizontal type turret; and E+C, a horizontal VDI power turret. The vertical type turret (A) is listed from the 250 upward and the automatic tool changer (ATC) from the 500 upward, so neither applies to the YV200.
03
The spindle runs 50-3,500 rpm on an 11/15 kW (14.8/20.1 hp) motor. That is the highest top speed in the YV table. The YV250, with the same motor, runs 50-2,500 rpm.
04
The floor dimension is 2,880 x 1,530 mm (113.4 x 60.2 in) and the machine height is 2,460 mm (96.9 in). Allow extra room for the chip conveyor, the electrical cabinet doors and loading access, which the table does not break out.
