This TOS Varnsdorf WHQ 13.8 CNC is a plasma cutter — sometimes referred to as a plasma cutting machine — used for precision thermal cutting of metal plate and structural material using a high-temperature plasma arc. TOS Varnsdorf is a long-established Czech machine tool manufacturer with a strong reputation for heavy-duty boring and milling machines serving the engineering, aerospace, and general metalworking industries.
Despite its listing category, the seller's detailed notes make clear this machine is in fact a horizontal boring mill, also known as a horizontal boring and milling machine — a large-format machining centre used for precision boring, milling, drilling, and contouring of substantial workpieces. It was built in 2000 and is located in Germany.
The machine is equipped with a Heidenhain 426 CNC control and a Heidenhain handwheel, giving the operator full multi-axis numerical control alongside manual override capability. It operates across five axes, with linear travels of 3,500 mm in X, 2,500 mm in Y, 1,250 mm in Z, and a B-axis rotation of 800 mm, making it well suited to large and complex workpieces that require machining from multiple orientations.
The work table measures 2,200 mm in length and 1,800 mm in width, with a clamping surface of 1,800 × 1,600 mm and a rated table load capacity of 12 tonnes, accommodating heavy components typical of energy, shipbuilding, or heavy engineering applications. The spindle has a diameter of 130 mm, accepts SK 50 tooling, and reaches a maximum speed of 2,500 rpm. The machine is driven by a 90 kW spindle motor, reflecting the power demands of heavy-duty cutting and boring operations. The tool magazine holds 60 positions, enabling extended unmanned machining cycles with a wide range of tooling.
The machine was comprehensively overhauled in 2022, and an inspection report is available. As part of that overhaul, the telescopic guards were fully refurbished with new wipers. The overall footprint is approximately 7,500 × 6,950 × 4,000 mm (L × W × H), and the machine weighs approximately 40 tonnes.
