Vertical lathes

These are the machines we produce according to your requirements. Multiple uses, high stability and accuracy are the key features of our products.

A double-column vertical lathe combines the advantages of a vertical lathe and gantry machining centre. We are able to meet all customer requirements regarding the size of the workpiece. The load capacity of the table up to 1,100 tons speaks for itself.

ČKD SKDY

As the main parts of the machine are castings, you can always rely on high rigidity, geometric precision and long service life. The modular concept provides high flexibility in the machine design. ČKD SKDY allows turning of internal and external surfaces, as well as milling, thread turning, grinding, boring, drilling and other operations. The machine is used by customers for machining in the rail, ship-building, aerospace and arms industries.
