BARDONS & OLIVER 1SC-300 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC turning center features a 3-inch bar capacity with two controlled axes, enabling precise and efficient machining operations. It supports a maximum spindle speed of 3,000 RPM and accommodates a maximum turning diameter of 12 inches, allowing work on moderately sized components. The machine offers a machining length of up to 15.125 inches, suitable for medium-length parts. Controlled by a FANUC 32i CNC system, it ensures reliable and accurate numerical control programming for complex turning tasks. With a robust construction weighing 14,500 pounds, this turning center provides stability and vibration damping essential for precision machining. Its two-axis configuration typically includes X (diameter control) and Z (length control) axes, essential for conventional turning processes. The combination of moderate spindle speed, turning diameter, and bar capacity positions this lathe well for small- to medium-scale precision production runs requiring CNC automation and high repeatability. The FANUC 32i control system is industry-standard for reliability and feature-rich operation. Overall, this turning center offers a balance of size capability, control sophistication, and rigidity, making it ideal for exacting turning applications requiring CNC precision on parts up to 12 inches in diameter and just over 15 inches in length.
