CLAUSING CB 60X448 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a **60-inch swing capacity** and a substantial **machining length of 448 inches**, making it suitable for large workpieces and extended precision machining. The machine is controlled by the **Fanuc 18i T CNC system**, known for its advanced multi-axis control capabilities, supporting up to 20 controlled axes with precise interpolation and synchronous control functions. The Fanuc 18i T control offers high-resolution incremental positioning with accuracy down to 0.0001 mm and supports complex machining operations including arbitrary angular axis control, tandem disturbance elimination, and rotary axis management. Its flexible architecture supports multiple paths, loader integration, and incorporates safety features such as overtravel and emergency stop functions. The system's interface supports extensive digital I/O points (up to 2048) facilitating integration with peripheral devices and automation systems. Parameter settings for feedrate, tool compensation, and coordinate management are highly configurable via the operator panel with MDI and macro programming support. This robust configuration balances heavy-duty machining capacity with sophisticated CNC control, enabling high precision, complex turning tasks, and efficient production workflows, especially suited for large components and multi-axis machining operations where long travel and versatile axis control are essential. Fanuc’s 18i T system is widely recognized for stability, functionality, and adaptability in demanding industrial manufacturing environments.
