BRIDGEPORT ROMI CENTUR 35E CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features an 8-inch chuck with a maximum bar capacity of 1.75 inches, driven by a 10 HP spindle motor capable of speeds up to 3,500 RPM. It accommodates workpieces up to 40 inches in length between centers, with a swing over bed of 20.25 inches and 10 inches over the cross slide, allowing machining of parts with substantial diameter and length. The bed is robust, measuring 13.375 inches wide and 12.625 inches high, supporting precision and stability during operation. The spindle uses an ASA A2-6 nose with a 2.5625-inch bore through the spindle to permit bar feeding. Tooling is managed via a turret featuring 0.75 x 0.75 inch tool sections, and the cross slide offers 5.5 inches of travel with the tool in position. The tailstock includes a quill with 4.625 inches travel and a 2.25-inch diameter, tapering to MT4 for additional tooling versatility. The machine operates with Fanuc O-TC CNC control, ensuring precise tool positioning and programmability. Rapid traverse rates are 240 inches per minute on the X-axis and 480 inches per minute on the Z-axis, optimizing throughput for production efficiency. The lathe occupies an 8 by 5-foot footprint and weighs 5,700 lbs, reflecting a heavy-duty construction suitable for industrial environments. This configuration supports accurate turning, facing, drilling, and threading of medium to large cylindrical parts with high repeatability and reliability.
