The VTC1612 is a highly rigid vertical turning center designed for heavy cutting applications. This machine features a hydrostatic table with C-axis indexing, a puzzle-type magazine for greater tooling flexibility, and automatic head changes. The VTC1612’s spindle utilizes a curvic gear-tooth coupler for increased rigidity, while the live function of the spindle allows turning and milling operations to be done in a single set up.
