This VDF Boehringer 21RO X 1.000 M is a used lathe — sometimes referred to as a centre lathe or turning lathe — a machine tool used to rotate a workpiece against a cutting tool to produce cylindrical, conical, or profiled components with high precision. VDF Boehringer is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing heavy-duty turning and grinding machines for the metalworking and engineering industries.
The machine offers a centre distance of 1,000 mm, defining the maximum length of workpiece that can be held between centres, and a swing over bed of 430 mm, which is the maximum workpiece diameter that can be rotated above the bed. The swing over the cross slide is 255 mm, indicating the clearance available when the cross slide is in position. Together, these figures make this a capable mid-size lathe suited to a broad range of turning work.
The spindle speed range runs from 19 to 2,000 RPM, providing considerable versatility for machining different materials and diameters at appropriate cutting speeds. The spindle bore measures 56 mm, allowing bar stock of up to that diameter to be passed through the headstock for chuck work. The machine is powered by a 7.5 kW motor, sufficient for sustained metal-cutting operations across its working envelope.
Included with the machine are various Multifix toolholders, a well-regarded quick-change toolpost system widely used on precision lathes, as well as a coolant pump to manage heat and swarf during cutting operations. The machine has an overall footprint of 360 × 103 × 130 cm and weighs 1,800 kg. It is currently located in the Netherlands and was manufactured in Germany.
