Introducing the Tongtai CT-350 VMC – High-Speed Five-Axis Machining in a Small Footprint
The new CT-350 five-axis Vertical Machining Center from Tongtai features state-of-the-art performance in a small footprint. The CT-350 boasts high-end machine construction and performance at an affordable price. The structure of the CT-350 is a "C" frame-type machine and was designed around high level mold-type machining centers to ensure rigidity during cutting. The column of the CT-350 has a wide span making it torsion-resistant while cutting a 5-axis part. Rigidity is enhanced by using 45mm roller type guide ways and pre-tensioned, large-diameter ballscrews.Absolute Machine Partners with ServiceMax for Improved Service Program
