CLAUSING CB 70X370 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This industrial lathe features a 70-inch swing and a machining length of 370 inches, designed for high-precision turning of large workpieces. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 18i-T CNC control system, providing advanced programming, diagnostics, and axis management capabilities. The Fanuc 18i-T offers multi-axis control, supporting up to 12 controlled axes (including machine and loader axes), with options for dual-path operation and loader integration for increased automation. The control supports inch/metric conversion, emergency stop, overtravel protection, and high-speed, high-accuracy interpolation for smooth contouring. It features robust I/O capabilities, including up to 2048 DI/DO points, and interfaces for pulse coders and optical scales for full-closed loop control. The system enables advanced functions such as stored stroke limit checks, interference detection, and tool compensation, ensuring safe and accurate machining. The Fanuc 18i-T also supports custom macro programming, part program storage, and data backup via various I/O devices. With its modular design, the control can be expanded for additional axes or integrated with peripheral equipment. The lathe’s large swing and extended machining length make it suitable for heavy-duty applications in aerospace, energy, and large-part manufacturing, while the Fanuc 18i-T control ensures reliable, efficient, and flexible operation.
