German Designed VivaTurn Lathes
October 1, 2014
SMTCL Americas has introduced VivaTurn, a new line of lathes designed to bring high performance and high productivity to North American job shops. These lathes were designed by SMTCL's Schiess-Tech design center in cooperation with designers in Shanghai, China. The lathes are available in simple 2-axis configuration or with live milling. Sub-spindle and Y-axis models will be released in the near future.
Marcus Otto, Managing Director of Schiess-Tech in Germany, said, "This was the first collaborative effort where we have combined the technical knowledge of our German engineers with the vast experience and large installed base of our colleagues in Shanghai. The result is a family of slant bed CNC lathes that are highly accurate and competitively priced."
Both the VivaTurn 2Sm/500 and the VivaTurn 4Cm/1000 were on display at IMTS 2014. The VivaTurn 2Sm has 22" swing over the bed, a 10" hydraulic chuck, 3.1" spindle bore and a 12-position live tool turret. The VivaTurn 4Cm has 28" of swing over the bed, a 10" hydraulic chuck, 3.1" spindle bore and a 12-postion power tool turret. All VivaTurn lathes come standard with the FANUC 0i-TD control, NSK bearings, a hydraulic tailstock and chip conveyor.
