Technical Description
This industrial machine features a 60-inch swing and a machining length of 252 inches, making it suitable for large-scale turning operations. It is equipped with a Fanuc 18i T CNC control system, which provides advanced programming, precise axis management, and robust machine interfacing capabilities. The Fanuc 18i T controller supports up to 25 total controlled axes, including both machine and loader axes, and offers expanded simultaneous axis control for complex machining tasks. The control system integrates features such as high-resolution interpolation, inch/metric conversion, emergency stop, and overtravel protection, ensuring both operational flexibility and safety. The CNC interface allows for custom macro programming, tool compensation, and part program storage, enabling efficient setup and repeatable accuracy. The Fanuc 18i T also supports advanced functions like axis synchronous control, parallel axis control, and arbitrary angular axis control, which enhance machining versatility for multi-tasking and complex geometries. The system is compatible with various I/O modules and machine interface options, including I/O Link and operator panel integration, for seamless connectivity with peripheral devices. The control panel provides intuitive operation for mode changes, override adjustments, and jog feed commands, while built-in safety protocols help prevent unintended machine movement or operator error. With its combination of large working capacity, high-precision CNC control, and extensive programmability, this machine is well-suited for demanding production environments requiring reliability, accuracy, and adaptability in heavy-duty turning applications.
