Hydraulic Turret-type vertical lathes (also referred to as the Turret Series / VTL H series) are designed for heavy engineering environments where large-diameter components, stable cutting, and repeatable results are non-negotiable. Built for industries such as oil & gas, earthmoving, and automotive, the series combines a graded cast-iron bed and column, box-type construction, a heavy-duty spindle, and a high-speed bi-directional hydraulic turret to support stable, vibration-free machining.
The Hydraulic Turret-type range includes models such as BVL 500 H, 550 H, 700 H, 800 H, 900 H, and 1250 H—covering a broad envelope for different component sizes and production requirements.
Hydraulic Turret-type VTLs are built for machining bigger diameter heavy components. The combination of box-type construction, a heavy-duty spindle, and a high-speed bi-directional hydraulic turret is designed to support stable cutting and dependable outcomes in demanding applications.
The series uses a graded cast-iron bed and column to support thermal stability and long-term accuracy. For production work, this stability helps reduce drift across longer cycles and supports repeatable performance shift after shift.
Cycle time isn’t only cutting time—it’s also positioning time. Hydraulic Turret-type machines feature rapid traverse capability (with higher values available depending on model) to help reduce non-cut time in production turning workflows.
The platform uses heavy-duty linear motion guideways on the X and Z axes to support better positioning and repeatability—especially important when turning operations must be consistent across batches.
Hydraulic Turret-type machines emphasize wide access to the chuck zone, supporting easier loading and unloading of heavy components. The design intent is a more practical shopfloor workflow—especially when cranes or handling systems are part of the process.
Hydraulic Turret-type VTLs include standard features intended to support safe, repeatable daily operation in heavy engineering environments.
12-station hydraulic turret
Safety door interlock
AC unit for the electrical cabinet
Hydraulic power pack with float level switch
Heavy-duty LM guides for X and Z axes
Operator essentials such as machine lamp, 3-tier lamp, and manual pulse generator on the control panel
The Turret Series is positioned around practical outcomes for heavy turning:
High rigid structure in the base and sub-assemblies
Extensive series range to match different work envelopes
Linear motion guideways on X and Z axes to support better positioning and repeatability
Heavy-duty spindle and high-speed bi-directional hydraulic turret designed for vibration-free cutting
Wide access to the chuck zone to simplify part handling
Optional features allow the Hydraulic Turret-type platform to be tailored around material, component size, chip type, and production workflow.
Chip conveyor options (slat type for steel, or scraper type for cast iron)
Two-speed gearbox option available for selected larger models
High power spindle options (availability depends on configuration)
High column option for increased daylight area on selected models
Auto door and tooling/accessory options (such as extra jaws and sleeves)
Chuck serration options (inch or metric) and machine color options as required
Hydraulic Turret-type vertical lathes are suited for machining bigger diameter heavy components in industries such as oil & gas, earthmoving, and automotive.
Typical component examples include:
Valve bodies
Motor bodies
Brake drums and brake discs
Flywheels
These machines are designed for environments where heavy cuts, stable surface finish, and repeatability matter—especially when components are large, heavy, or produced in consistent batches.
Hydraulic Turret-type vertical lathes (Turret Series / VTL H series) are built for heavy-duty, large-diameter turning with a focus on rigidity, thermal stability, and production-ready workflow. With a 12-station hydraulic turret, heavy-duty guideways on X and Z, and configuration options for chip handling, spindle power, and part access, the series is designed to support vibration-free machining and repeatable results in demanding industries.
If you’re evaluating a turret vertical lathe for heavy engineering work—especially valve bodies, brake components, flywheels, and similar large-diameter parts—the Hydraulic Turret-type platform is designed to meet that production reality.
