Vertical lathes are heavy-duty machines used for turning large, heavy, and often asymmetrical workpieces. These machines are ideal for machining tasks that require high precision and stability, such as large diameter metal components for industries like aerospace, automotive, and energy. The vertical orientation allows for effective handling of heavy parts and improved chip removal.
Check the machine's age, operational hours, and overall condition. Inspect for any signs of wear, especially in the spindle and bearings. Review maintenance records and verify the accuracy and functionality of the control system.
Hire a transport company experienced in moving heavy machinery. Ensure the lathe is properly secured to prevent movement and damage during transit. Use appropriate lifting equipment and packaging materials.
Regular maintenance includes checking the lubrication system, inspecting the spindle and bearings, and ensuring the accuracy of the control systems. Follow the manufacturer's manual for specific maintenance intervals and procedures.
