CNC vertical lathe
CH51T CNC Vertical Lathe
A vertical lathe for parts that are heavier than they are long: flanges, rings, wheels and gearbox cases. The table runs on hydrodynamic or constant-flow hydrostatic guideways, and a tool magazine turns the machine into a vertical turning centre.

Model FAQs
Questions Engineers Ask About The CH51T
Why does the CH51T hold its geometry under real work?
Two build points matter most on this machine: twin-ballscrew cross rail lift, bed ways laid out thermally symmetric; and table and table base cast as one thermally symmetric structure. Structure decides how a machine ages — the specification table tells you what it does new, the build tells you what it does in year five.
What spindle speeds does the CH51T run, and why does the range matter?
The catalogued range is 6.3–200 / 5–160 / 3.2–100 / 3.2–100 r/min. The span matters more than the top figure: large diameters and tough materials live at the low end where torque does the work, while small-diameter finishing wants the top end. A range that covers both ends is what lets one machine carry mixed work.
What separates the CH51T from the CHS51T in this group?
Both sit in the cNC vertical lathe group, so the decision is capacity and duty, not kind: put your largest part dimensions, material and yearly quantity against each specification table and one of the two will run out of a figure first. Send the drawing and we will name which of the two fits — including the case where the smaller machine does the job.
What is the lead time and warranty on the CH51T?
Standard configurations generally ship within 30 to 60 days of a confirmed order, with the date written into the contract. The CH51T then carries a 12-month warranty on main components, handled by the plant that built it, with lifetime technical support and spare parts identified by part number at handover.
