The VT16 is a bridge-type vertical turning center for large part machining. This machine features a hydrostatic table with C-axis indexing, a puzzle-type magazine for greater tool flexibility, and automatic head changes. The VT16 utilizes a Wele designed curvic coupling for increased rigidity, while the live function of the spindle allows turning and milling operations to be done in a single set up.
