ASKAR SPINNER 18 CNC LATHE

The 2-axis CNC lathe represents a fundamental model in precision machining, operating on linear X and Z axes where the X-axis controls diameter by moving the tool inward and outward, while the Z-axis controls length by advancing the tool along the workpiece. This machine features a maximum turning diameter of 14.17 inches and a swing capacity of 20.67 inches, making it suitable for medium-sized component production. With a machining length of 17.72 inches, the lathe accommodates a variety of workpiece sizes for simple to moderately complex geometries. The integrated tailstock provides additional support for extended workpieces, enhancing rigidity and precision during turning operations. Control is managed by a SIEMENS SINUMERIK 828D SL CNC system, which utilizes ISO code programming with manual keyboard input and RS232 communication interface, incorporating power-off protection and comprehensive self-diagnosis functions. The machine employs servo motor drives with precision ball screws for both vertical and horizontal movement, ensuring high repeatability and positioning accuracy. The unit occupies a footprint of 82.68 x 55.12 x 78.74 inches and weighs 9480 lbs, requiring substantial floor space and proper foundational support. This configuration makes the lathe ideal for cell manufacturing environments and production runs requiring consistent accuracy and efficiency in turning operations.
