ACCUWAY UT-600/4900 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 2-axis CNC lathe is engineered for high-volume production of large cylindrical components with exceptional precision and repeatability. The machine features a robust 15-inch chuck capacity and delivers 50 horsepower, making it well-suited for heavy turning operations on substantial workpieces. With a maximum turning diameter of 35.4 inches and swing clearance of 40.6 inches, the lathe accommodates large-diameter parts without interference or collision with machine guarding. The extended machining length of 192.9 inches enables the production of lengthy shafts, bushings, and custom fittings in a single setup, minimizing repositioning requirements and enhancing operational efficiency. Operating at up to 2,000 RPM, the spindle provides adequate rotational speed for controlled material removal on heavy stock and casting operations. The included tailstock provides critical support for longer workpieces during machining, maintaining dimensional stability and precision throughout the cutting process. Computer Numerical Control via FANUC 0i-T ensures consistent accuracy levels as tight as ±0.0005 inches, delivering superior repeatability across production runs. The 2-axis configuration controls the X-axis for diameter adjustments and the Z-axis for longitudinal tool movement, executing complex symmetrical turning operations with minimal manual intervention. This machine represents an ideal solution for shops requiring precision turning capabilities on large-scale components with demanding tolerances and extended machining lengths.
