This CNC lathe is a precision turning machine equipped with advanced Computer Numerical Control technology for automated machining operations. The machine features a maximum bar capacity of 3 inches, enabling it to accommodate standard stock materials for various production runs. With a maximum rotational speed of 4,000 RPM, the spindle delivers adequate velocity for efficient turning and drilling operations across multiple material types. The turning diameter specification of 14.96 inches defines the maximum radial cutting distance the lathe tool can achieve perpendicular to the spindle axis, while the swing measurement of 17.32 inches indicates the largest workpiece diameter that can rotate freely over the bed without obstruction. This swing specification is a key classification parameter used by manufacturers to define lathe size categories. The CNC control system enables programmable tool positioning and automated operation sequences, enhancing production efficiency and repeatability compared to manual lathes. The machine operates on standard 2-axis configuration with the cutting tool positioned at a multi-station turret, allowing rapid tool changes without manual intervention. This configuration supports basic turning operations including cylindrical turning, facing, boring, and threading on workpieces within the specified capacity limits. The combination of these specifications positions this lathe as a mid-range machine suitable for small to medium-sized production environments, capable of handling precision work on various materials while maintaining consistent dimensional accuracy across multiple parts.
