Standard VD-2500 Double Column Vertical Lathe:
A double column vertical lathe, also known as a vertical boring mill, is a large industrial machine tool used to machine large, heavy parts. As the name suggests, the machine has two columns that support a cross rail, which can move up and down along the columns. The cross rail holds a tool turret, which can hold a variety of cutting tools, including boring bars, drills, and milling cutters.
The workpiece is held on a rotary table, which is mounted on the base of the machine. The table can rotate around a vertical axis, allowing the cutting tool to machine the workpiece from various angles. The machine can be used to machine a variety of parts, including gears, bearings, and other large, heavy components.
Double column vertical lathes are often used in heavy industry, such as the manufacturing of wind turbines, ship engines, and large industrial machinery. They can also be used for precision machining of large components in aerospace and defense industries.
The advantages of a double column vertical lathe include its ability to machine large, heavy parts with high precision and accuracy. The machine is also highly versatile, as it can be used for a variety of cutting operations, including turning, boring, drilling, and milling. Additionally, the machine can reduce setup time and increase productivity, as it can machine multiple surfaces of a part in a single setup.

Using a double column vertical lathe requires a high level of expertise and knowledge of the machine's controls, safety features, and machining techniques.
Here are the general steps involved in using a double column vertical lathe:
Select the appropriate cutting tools: Depending on the workpiece and the machining operation, you will need to select the appropriate cutting tools for the tool turret. These may include boring bars, drills, and milling cutters.
Load the workpiece onto the rotary table: Use a hoist or crane to lift the workpiece onto the rotary table, and secure it in place using clamps or fixtures.
Set the cutting conditions: Using the machine's controls, set the cutting conditions, including the spindle speed, feed rate, and depth of cut.
Position the cutting tool: Use the machine's controls to position the cutting tool at the appropriate position relative to the workpiece.
Start the machining operation: Press the start button to begin the machining operation. Monitor the machine for any abnormal sounds or vibrations, and adjust the cutting conditions as necessary.
Check the machined part: Once the machining operation is complete, use precision measuring tools to check the machined part for accuracy and quality.
Unload the workpiece: Use a hoist or crane to remove the machined workpiece from the rotary table.
Clean the machine: Thoroughly clean the machine and the work area to remove any chips, coolant, or other debris.
It's important to note that the specific steps and procedures involved in using a double column vertical lathe may vary depending on the machine model and the machining operation being performed. It's always a good idea to consult the machine's operator manual and receive proper training before using the machine.
