The Honor PL Series (PL-160CM to PL-350CM) is a revolutionary line of large Vertical Turning Lathes (VTL) that merges the robust turning capability of a lathe with the multi-axis flexibility of a machining center.

These machines are distinguished by their high-rigidity structure combined with an integrated gantry-type Y-axis mechanism. This unique Y-axis functionality allows for sophisticated machining operations—such as milling, drilling, and tapping off-center—to be performed in a single setup, achieving results similar to a bridge-type machining center. This fusion provides manufacturers with unparalleled flexibility for handling multiple, high-precision machining operations on complex parts.

The PL Series supports a wide range of large components, with the top model, the PL-350CM, accommodating parts up to 4,000 mm (157.”) in turning diameter and up to 35,000 kg (77,161 lbs) in weight. All models feature multi-tasking capabilities with a substantial tool magazine capacity (R16 for turning tools and L60 for live tools).

The PL Series is the ideal choice for businesses demanding both the heavy-duty capacity of a vertical lathe and the high-precision, 5-axis-style functionality of a modern machining center.
