CLAUSING CB 50X70 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a robust design with a 50-inch swing and a machining length of 70 inches, making it suitable for large-diameter and long-part turning operations. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 18i-T control system, a high-performance CNC platform known for its reliability, advanced programming capabilities, and seamless integration with industrial automation. The Fanuc 18i-T offers multi-axis control, supporting up to 12 controlled axes (including tandem and loader axes), and provides advanced functions such as high-speed machining, precise interpolation, and flexible feed gear options for enhanced accuracy and productivity. The control supports both inch and metric measurement systems, as well as nano interpolation for ultra-fine surface finishes. The system includes comprehensive safety features such as emergency stop, overtravel protection, and stored stroke limit checks to ensure operator and machine safety. Communication and data management are facilitated through standard I/O interfaces, with support for up to 2048 digital input/output points, enabling integration with peripheral devices and automation systems. The Fanuc 18i-T also supports advanced programming features like custom macros, tool compensation, and conversational programming, streamlining setup and operation. The control’s modular architecture allows for easy expansion and customization, supporting options such as twin table control, parallel axis control, and arbitrary angular axis control for complex machining tasks. With its combination of large working capacity, precision control, and versatile programming, this lathe is ideal for demanding production environments in industries such as aerospace, automotive, and heavy machinery.
