ACER ATL 1840 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 2-axis CNC lathe combines robust industrial capability with precision machining versatility. Equipped with a powerful 10 horsepower motor, the machine delivers consistent cutting force across a wide range of materials including steel, aluminum, and cast iron. The spindle reaches a maximum rotational speed of 3,100 RPM, providing optimal surface finishes and material removal rates for both roughing and finishing operations. With an 18.11-inch swing capacity, the machine accommodates workpieces of substantial diameter, making it suitable for mid-range production runs and job shop applications. The 35.43-inch machining length provides adequate working space for extended components, enabling efficient production of shafts, bushings, and other cylindrical parts without repositioning. The integrated tailstock enhances machining flexibility by supporting extended workpieces and enabling drilling, boring, and taper operations with improved accuracy and reduced deflection. The CNC control system enables automated multi-axis coordination, precise speed and feed rate management, and repeatable part production with minimal operator intervention. This configuration streamlines programming through G-code compatibility and allows for complex turning operations, threading, and contoured surfaces. The 2-axis control manages longitudinal (Z-axis) and cross-feed (X-axis) movements, providing reliable positioning accuracy suitable for production environments. Combined with its substantial power output and extended working envelope, this lathe delivers professional-grade performance for commercial fabrication shops, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities requiring dependable CNC turning capability at mid-sized production scales.
