You Ji CY Series โ€“ Vertical Turning Centers with Automatic Pallet Changers

The You Ji CY-550H+APC vertical turning center is a compact, high-precision, CNC machine designed with a built-in automatic pallet changer for continuous, uninterrupted production โ€” ideal for both stand-alone and integrated production line environments. Built for stability and accuracy, the CY-550H+APC features a rigid vertical column and base constructed from Meehanite castings. These heavily ribbed structures effectively minimize thermal distortion and absorb vibration, ensuring consistent machining performance. The X- and Z-axis linear guideway system enables rapid traverse rates of 787 in/min (20 m/min), with box way configurations also available to suit heavier cutting applications. Class 3 precision ballscrews are directly coupled to servo motors eliminating belts or gears to provide smoother, more accurate motion and reduced maintenance.

An 8-position hydraulic turret (with optional 10-position configuration) delivers fast indexing at just 0.5 seconds, with automatic shortest-path tool selection for optimized cycle times. A live tooling turret is also available as an option for added versatility. A standard chip wash system helps clear chips from the machining area into the conveyor, maintaining a clean and efficient cutting environment.

The CY-550H+APC can be extensively customized to meet specific production needs, offering a broad range of options such as a C-axis and live tools, Y-axis capability, radial and axial live tool heads, automatic tool presetter, specialized chucking and fixturing solutions, and fully automated loading/unloading systems.
