Technical Description
This industrial lathe features a robust swing capacity of 70 inches, allowing for the machining of large-diameter workpieces, and a maximum machining length of 409 inches, making it suitable for extended parts and high-precision turning operations. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 18i T CNC control system, renowned for its reliability, advanced functionality, and ease of integration in demanding production environments. The Fanuc 18i T offers multi-axis control, supporting up to 12 controlled axes (including machine and loader axes), and provides options for tandem control, electric gear box functions, and high-resolution incremental systems (0.0001 mm/deg). The control supports flexible feed gear settings, learning control, HRV (High Response Vector) servo control, and emergency stop and overtravel protection for enhanced safety and performance. The system also features inch/metric conversion, nano interpolation for ultra-fine surface finishes, and comprehensive I/O capabilities with up to 2048 DI/DO points for seamless integration with automation and peripheral devices. The Fanuc 18i T enables efficient programming, diagnostics, and data management, supporting custom macros, tool compensation, and part program storage. With its advanced parameter settings, stored stroke limit checks, and interference detection, the control ensures precise and reliable operation. This lathe is ideal for heavy-duty turning applications in industries requiring high accuracy, repeatability, and long-term durability.
