Fryer Machine Systems Expands Capabilities with the VT Series of Compact, Large-Swing Vertical Turret Lathes!

Fryer Machine Systems has introduced its VT Series of vertical turret lathes (VTLs), designed to offer a large-swing capacity within a compact footprint, making it ideal for manufacturers looking to maximize floor space without sacrificing machining capabilities. Available in three swing sizes – 40″, 60″, and 80″ – the VT Series is engineered to handle a diverse range of machining operations, including turning, milling, boring, and grinding, all within a single machine setup.

The VT Series features a unique traveling column design, which allows the machine to accommodate larger swing capacities while maintaining a small footprint. This configuration not only optimizes shop floor space but also enhances machining stability and accuracy. The machine’s horizontal turret design offers ample clearance for various tool lengths, allowing operators to handle both long and short tools efficiently. This flexibility makes it suitable for shops handling a wide range of part sizes and geometries.

Fryer has equipped the VT Series with high-performance CNC controls powered by either FANUC or Siemens, tailored to meet the needs of diverse production requirements. The controls support both shop-floor conversational programming, suitable for single-piece runs, and G-code programming for higher production runs, providing versatility for both low-volume custom jobs and high-volume repetitive tasks.

In line with modern sustainability practices, the VT Series comes standard with regenerative drives engineered to save up to 40% in energy costs. This eco-friendly design helps manufacturers reduce operational costs and environmental impact, aligning with energy-efficient production standards.

Built in the United States, Fryer’s VT Series is known for its reliability, accuracy, and ease of use, catering to shops that prioritize performance and quality. By consolidating multiple machining functions into one compact machine, the VT Series provides an all-in-one solution for shops looking to streamline operations and boost productivity.
