Technical Description
This is a heavy-duty 2-axis CNC lathe engineered for high-precision longitudinal turning and facing operations on large workpieces. The machine delivers 18.6 kW of continuous power, enabling sustained cutting performance across diverse material applications. With a maximum spindle speed of 1,000 RPM, the system prioritizes torque delivery and cutting stability over high-speed machining, making it exceptionally suited for large-diameter turning, threading, and heavy interrupted cuts on cast iron, steel, and other demanding materials.
The 28-inch swing capacity accommodates substantial workpiece diameters, while the 160-inch machining length provides extended Z-axis travel for extended workpieces and complex multi-step operations. The integrated tailstock support enables bar work, between-centers turning, and steady-rest applications, significantly expanding operational versatility and workpiece holding options.
The 2-axis CNC control system manages simultaneous X and Z-axis interpolation, delivering precise dimensional control with coordinated spindle speed adjustments. This configuration streamlines turning cycles, threading operations, and contoured profile work with repeatable accuracy. The control system integrates with modern G-code programming standards, allowing for complex part geometries and automated tool compensation.
This machine class represents industrial-grade production equipment designed for moderate to high-volume manufacturing environments, tool and die shops, and specialty machining facilities requiring reliable, repeatable performance on larger components. The combination of substantial swing diameter, extended capacity, and powerful spindle makes this platform ideal for aerospace components, industrial shafts, hydraulic cylinders, and similarly dimensioned precision parts.
