BOCHI CB45A CNC LATHES

Technical Description

This compact CNC lathe is engineered for precision machining of small to medium workpieces with a maximum swing diameter of 12.6 inches, enabling the machine to accommodate and rotate parts up to this diameter above the bed. The machining length of 5.9 inches defines the maximum workpiece length the lathe can process between the headstock spindle and tailstock center, making it suitable for components requiring shorter longitudinal cuts. The bar capacity specification of 1.38 inches indicates the maximum diameter of bar stock material the machine can hold and feed through the spindle, providing flexibility for automatic feeding operations on smaller stock sizes. The spindle delivers a maximum rotational speed of 5,000 RPM, offering sufficient velocity for both roughing and finishing operations on various materials while maintaining optimal surface finishes and tool life. This speed range accommodates diverse cutting requirements across different workpiece materials and tool geometries. The CNC control system automates all machining operations, enabling programmable tool paths, repeatable accuracy, and complex part production without manual intervention. This lathe classification positions it as an ideal solution for prototyping, small-batch production, and precision component manufacturing where workpiece dimensions are limited. The combination of manageable swing diameter, controlled machining length, and moderate bar capacity makes this machine particularly well-suited for shops requiring versatile production capabilities within a compact footprint. The 5,000 RPM maximum speed provides adequate cutting performance for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials commonly encountered in precision machining operations.
