The KCI Series Heavy-duty Double column Vertical Turning Lathes are intended for turning and boring of cylindrical, conic and curved surfaces, as well as complex shaped large-size workpieces.
The railhead can be equipped with a tool spindle, making it possible to perform also drilling and milling operations.
The use of the latest Siemens SINUMERIK 840D CNC and digital drive technology guarantees maximum performance and the complete compatibility of all drive and control components.
The KCI Series Vertical Turning Lathes along with a wide array of optional equipment are customized to meet the Customer’s individual requirements.
The machine tool body system consists of base with table, two columns and connecting beam all mechanically connected what forms a rigid and stable frame structure. The machine tool major members as base, table, columns, cross-rail and railhead are made as high grade iron castings. This ensures both high geometrical stability and excellent vibration damping, better than those of the fabricated structures.
