CLAUSING CB 60X488 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 60-inch swing capacity, allowing it to machine workpieces with a maximum diameter up to this size. It offers a substantial machining length of 488 inches, supporting long part production without repositioning. The machine is controlled by a Fanuc 18i-T CNC system, known for its robust performance and advanced control features, including support for up to 16 to 20 controlled axes, multi-path processing, and comprehensive interfacing capabilities. The Fanuc 18i-T controller integrates functions such as inch/metric conversion, emergency stop, overtravel protection, and fine interpolation for high-precision machining. It supports various advanced control options like position detection, feedrate parameter setting, and tool compensation data management. The control system provides a user-friendly operator panel coupled with extensive input/output capacity (up to 1024/1024 I/O points) for flexible customization and automation integration. This combination enables precise, efficient, and flexible machining operations suitable for complex or large-scale manufacturing tasks. The system’s safety features, including overtravel detection and emergency stop functions, ensure operator protection and machine longevity during operation. Overall, this machine and control system offer a capable solution for demanding turning applications requiring large swing, extended machining length, and high control precision typical in heavy-duty industrial environments.
