MFG Machinery CK51160 CNC Vertical Turning Lathe (VTL)

1600mm Capacity, 2-Speed Gearbox & 8° Slanted Turret for Heavy Disc Machining

Product Overview
The MFG Machinery CK51160 is a heavy-duty, single-column CNC Vertical Turning Lathe (VTL) engineered for the high-precision, high-torque machining of large-scale disc sleeves, heavy covers, and complex cylindrical parts.

Built upon a vibration-absorbing, symmetrical box-type cast iron structure, this full-function VTL delivers uncompromising precision retention under extreme cutting loads.

Equipped with a highly rigid T-shaped ram, a liftable crossbeam with a precision sub-positioning mechanism, and a high-power AC spindle driven by a 2-speed gearbox, the CK51160 effortlessly executes powerful inner/outer turning, conical profiling, and precision threading.

Featuring fully enclosed guarding and a uniquely slanted 4-station electric turret, it provides a safe, clean, and highly efficient manufacturing solution for the heavy equipment and aerospace sectors.

Key Features & Advanced Engineering

• High-Rigidity Symmetrical Box Structure: The base, column, and crossbeam are cast from premium high-strength iron. This symmetrical box-type architecture delivers exceptional shock absorption and thermal stability, allowing the machine to carry massive cutting torque without structural deformation.
• T-Shaped Ram for Heavy Boring: The vertical ram utilizes an optimized T-shaped structural design. This geometry maximizes bending stiffness and minimizes deflection, ensuring outstanding accuracy and tight tolerances during aggressive heavy roughing and deep-hole boring.
• Liftable Crossbeam with Sub-Positioning: To accommodate large workpieces of varying heights, the heavy-duty crossbeam features an advanced sub-positioning (stepped locking) mechanism. This provides absolute mechanical locking rigidity at designated heights, eliminating the micro-vibrations often found in purely screw-driven beams.
• 8° Slanted 4-Station Electric Turret: Equipped with a specialized 4-station vertical electric turret featuring an 8° structural slant. This engineered tilt enhances cutting clearance, optimizes tool force distribution, and delivers rapid, highly rigid tool changes.
• High-Torque 2-Speed Spindle Drive: Powered by a high-capacity AC spindle motor paired with a robust two-speed transmission gearbox. It outputs massive torque at low RPMs for heavy material removal, while maintaining smooth, stable rotation at high speeds for precise finishing.
• Anti-Stick-Slip Hardened Guideways: The large-span machine guideways are induction-hardened, meticulously hand-scraped, and precision-ground. They are lined with a high-performance PTFE (Turcite-B) anti-friction coating to completely eliminate stick-slip, providing extremely low sliding resistance and guaranteeing long-term precision.
• Advanced Thermal Management: The main drive system is equipped with a dedicated spindle oil cooler to ensure continuous lubrication and prevent thermal expansion during heavy-duty shifts. A separate, movable cooling water tank is provided for effortless chip cleaning and fluid maintenance.
• Fully Enclosed Guarding & Centralized Control: Designed for modern environmental standards, the machine features fully enclosed splash guarding to contain coolant and chips. An intuitive, centralized machine tool operation panel makes programming and operation exceptionally fast and convenient.
