VIACNC announced as Oturn’s official UK distributor

VIACNC brings Oturn CNC machines to the UK market

Sheffield-based VIACNC, a specialist in the design, manufacture, and supply of heavy-duty CNC lathes, has been announced as the official distributor of Oturn’s comprehensive range of CNC machines. The move brings a globally respected manufacturer of machine tools to British industry, with a focus on delivering precision, flexibility, and long-term reliability across a wide variety of manufacturing applications.

Oturn, headquartered in China, is a well-established manufacturer of high-performance CNC machines. Its product portfolio includes two-axis lathes, twin-spindle turning centres, multi-tasking machines, and advanced five-axis machining centres. Designed to meet the demands of modern manufacturing, Oturn machines are high quality and robust machines, and can be supplied with leading control systems such as Siemens and Fanuc. The result is a range of machines that offer high accuracy, fast cycle times, and dependable productivity.

Long-term partner
Declan Kearney, VIACNC’s sales director, said: “Oturn is a valued long-term partner of VIACNC, recognised for delivering high quality machines and exceptional service. Their support begins long before a machine leaves the factory, with detailed project consultation, tailored scheme design, and expert technical advice.”

Oturn’s machines are already in use across a wide range of demanding industries. In aerospace, they are renowned for their precision and repeatability; in the automotive sector, they support high-speed, high-volume production; and in oil and gas, their heavy-duty construction ensures performance under extreme conditions. The company also supplies solutions to marine engineering, power generation, rail, and heavy equipment manufacturing — each with its own set of technical challenges and performance requirements.

Support is a key part of the offering. Oturn provides in-sale services such as customised manufacturing, progress tracking, and rigorous pre-shipment testing. Logistics and installation are also managed to ensure machines are delivered and commissioned efficiently. Once in operation, customers benefit from ongoing technical training, fast-response fault diagnosis, scheduled maintenance, and a reliable spare parts supply.

Mr Kearney added: “This complete lifecycle approach makes Oturn an ideal partner for VIACNC in delivering bespoke solutions backed by lasting, world-class support. The Oturn range is not a collection of off-the-shelf machines — each solution is tailored to the customer’s application, with a focus on productivity, innovation, and the end product. With VIACNC’s technical expertise and local support, UK manufacturers now have access to a new level of CNC capability — backed by a team committed to long-term performance.”
