BERKSHIRE KS-32L CNC LATHE

This CNC turning machine is a compact precision lathe with a maximum swing diameter of 13.39 inches and a machining length of 7.87 inches, making it well-suited for small to medium-sized workpieces. The machine features a high-speed main spindle capable of reaching 6,000 RPM, providing rapid material removal and enabling efficient machining of various materials. With a turning diameter of 5.31 inches, it can accommodate barstock up to approximately 2.66 inches in radius, allowing for versatile part geometries. The CNC control system enables automated tool selection and positioning through a programmable tool turret, eliminating manual intervention and improving repeatability and accuracy. This automation facilitates complex multi-axis machining operations including turning, drilling, and potentially milling when equipped with live tools. The machine achieves exceptional dimensional tolerances of ±0.0001 inches with repeatability of ±0.002 mm or better, making it suitable for precision applications in aerospace, medical, and automotive industries. Rapid traverse speeds of approximately 30 m/min across all axes minimize non-cutting time and maximize productivity. The compact footprint combined with high spindle speed and precision capabilities makes this machine ideal for high-volume production of intricate turned and drilled components, while maintaining tight tolerance levels required by demanding manufacturing sectors.
