Technology integration: turning, boring, milling, grinding, hobbing – all in a single machine.

The VLC 1200 production machine is configured as a rigid turning platform. The pickup work spindle, with direct drive synchronous motor (no gearbox), provides high power and torque. By using direct drives, even technologies that require a very high degree of control and synchronized characteristics (e.g. grinding or hobbing) can be integrated in the production machines. The integrated A-axis supports helical tooth cutting, and the B-axis supports angular plunge grinding.
