You Ji VTL

The VTL series vertical lathes are the result of a series of studies carried out by YOU JI on its entire range of vertical lathes, from which it emerges that their main objective is great versatility of use so that the machine in question is suitable for machining in the energy, oil, wind, mining, rail, steel, oil, transmission, nuclear, aeronautical, marine, earthmoving, mould and die sectors, oil, wind power, mining, rail, steel, petroleum, transmission, nuclear, aerospace, marine, earthmoving, moulds and dies, automotive, transport, textiles and mechanical engineering in general.

The VTL models are equipped with a mobile crosshead for applications where the variety of workpieces to be machined is great, benefiting from the overall rigidity determined by the proximity of the crosshead to the workpiece. The VTL line includes a series of vertical lathes and vertical turning centres for milling, drilling and grinding, with platform diameters from 1600 to 4500 mm and turning diameters up to 4800 mm, equipped with spindle motors of up to 75 kW and milling motors of up to 26 kW.

In essence, this is a highly advanced and comfortable line of machines that, in our opinion, fully responds to the brands’ move towards modern production and enhances the innovative efforts of YOU JI’s designers, who draw on the vast experience the company has accumulated in over 40 years of activity in the bar turning market.

The You Ji VTL series is a range of CNC vertical lathes designed for machining large workpieces, with a column-and-base design for stability and rigidity. The nine models, from the VTL1200ATC to the VTL4500ATC (with the twin-ram variant VTL1600ATC-2R), cover a turning length from 1,200 to 1,700 mm and a workpiece load that grows progressively from 5,000 kg on the VTL1200ATC up to 30,000 kg on the VTL4000ATC and VTL4500ATC models. Among the intermediate sizes, the VTL1600ATC and VTL1600ATC-2R handle workpieces up to 8,000 kg, the VTL2000ATC up to 10,000 kg, the VTL2500ATC up to 15,000 kg, while the VTL3000ATC and VTL3500ATC reach 20,000 kg. This scalability makes the series suitable for a wide variety of vertical turning applications, from medium-sized jobs up to the heaviest and bulkiest components.
