Capabilities

The Boehringer VDF V3 is a classic center lathe designed for precision metalworking. With a 315mm chuck diameter and 1500mm turning length, it handles mid-sized cylindrical components like shafts, bushings, and custom metal parts. The 500mm swing over bed and TRAK 102 control panel provide solid capability for both standard and semi-automated production runs.

Industries & Uses

This type of lathe is essential for job shops, small manufacturing operations, and tool-and-die makers who need reliable metal turning. It's also popular with model makers, tool repair services, and educational institutions. The TRAK 102 system offers user-friendly CNC assistance without the complexity of fully modern controls—ideal if you want precision without a steep learning curve.

What to Check When Buying

When evaluating this 1965 machine, inspect the chuck for wear and spindle runout accuracy, as these directly affect part quality. Request maintenance records and ask about spindle bearings, feed mechanisms, and whether the TRAK 102 system has been serviced recently. Check for play in the cross slide and bed ways. An on-site inspection is your best opportunity to run test cuts and verify all functions work smoothly.
