Capabilities

The Boehringer VDF M670 is a versatile center lathe designed for precision metalworking. With a 400mm chuck diameter and 1000mm turning length, it handles medium-sized components effectively. The 700mm swing over bed allows you to work with substantial cylindrical parts, while the 400mm swing over cross slide accommodates detailed secondary operations. The TRAK 102 control panel brings modern ease to this proven mechanical design.

Industries & Uses

This lathe suits job shops, small-to-medium manufacturing facilities, and custom metalworking businesses producing shafts, bushings, flanges, and similar turned parts. It's ideal for prototype development and batch production runs where flexibility matters more than high-volume automation. Schools and training programs also value this class of machine for teaching fundamental machining skills.

What to Check When Buying

When inspecting this 1977 model, check the spindle for runout and bearing play—worn spindles affect precision significantly. Examine the bed for cracks or deep scoring that indicates poor maintenance. Request full maintenance records and ask about recent spindle repairs, ways lubrication service, and chuck condition. Test all cross-slide movements for smooth operation and backlash. Verify the TRAK 102 control system functions reliably, as replacement parts for older electronics can be challenging to source.
