Technical Description
This industrial CNC lathe represents a heavy-duty turning center designed for large-scale precision machining operations. The machine features an impressive swing capacity of 55.12 inches, enabling the processing of substantial workpieces with considerable diameters. Its extended machining length of 303 inches accommodates extremely long components, making it ideal for manufacturing extended shafts, tubes, and other elongated parts requiring precision turning operations.
The 40-inch chuck size provides robust workholding capability, ensuring secure clamping of large diameter stock while maintaining concentricity and minimizing runout during high-speed operations. This substantial chuck capacity directly correlates with the machine's swing specification, allowing efficient handling of oversized workpieces across a broad range of applications.
Powered by a 50-horsepower motor, this lathe delivers exceptional spindle performance and cutting force necessary for demanding production environments. The substantial power rating enables aggressive cutting parameters, reducing cycle times while maintaining surface finish quality and dimensional accuracy on difficult-to-machine materials including cast iron, steel alloys, and specialty compositions.
The CNC control system provides programmable automation, supporting complex turning geometries, multi-axis operations, and repeatable precision manufacturing. Integrated features typically include programmable spindle speed control, automatic tool turret indexing, coolant management systems, and real-time dimensional feedback mechanisms.
This machine class serves aerospace, automotive, energy, and heavy equipment manufacturing sectors, where large components require reliable, repeatable precision machining capabilities. The combination of exceptional swing diameter, extended bed length, powerful spindle, and sophisticated CNC control makes this lathe suitable for both production runs and specialized one-off component manufacturing.
