Ajax CNC Vertical Turning Lathes – Built for Modern Industry
The Ajax range of CNC Vertical Turning Lathes (VTLs) is engineered to meet the evolving demands of today’s manufacturing environment. Featuring the advanced Fanuc 0i TF Plus control system, with the optional Manual Guide i conversational interface, these machines are capable of programming and producing even the most complex components with ease.
For added versatility, live tooling and a C axis are available, expanding the machine’s capabilities for multi-process machining.
Engineered for Strength and Stability
At the core of the VTL is a solid cast bed and base, giving the machine the rigidity and strength needed to deliver heavy cuts, maintain exceptional precision, and handle a wide range of materials in continuous production environments.
This makes the Ajax VTL an ideal solution for high-performance machining where accuracy, durability, and output are critical.
Accuracy.
Unrivalled Accuracy with Renishaw XL-80 Laser Calibration
At Ajax, precision is more than just a promise—it’s a standard we rigorously uphold. We are one of the very few companies in the UK equipped with a Renishaw XL-80 laser measurement system, a cutting-edge tool capable of measuring movement down to a nanometre—that’s 1,000th of a micron, or 1,000,000th of a millimetre.
This ultra-precise data allows us to calibrate our machines to exceptional levels of accuracy, ensuring optimal performance across the entire working envelope. Our standard calibration results consistently achieve tolerances of less than ±0.002 mm, far exceeding typical industry capabilities. Most competitors simply cannot measure or prove this level of accuracy.
On-Site Calibration & Annual Re-Checks
To maintain this precision over time, we offer:
- On-site calibration services using our XL-80 system
- Annual re-calibration to keep your machine tools performing at peak accuracy
Trust Ajax for machine tools that are accurately built, precisely tested, and proven to perform.
