CLAUSING CB 70X94 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 70-inch swing and a machining length of 94 inches, making it suitable for large-diameter and long-part turning operations. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 18i-T control system, which provides advanced CNC functionality for high-precision machining. The Fanuc 18i-T control supports up to 12 controlled axes (including machine and loader axes), with options for dual-path operation and loader integration, enabling complex multitasking and automation. The control system offers robust programming capabilities, including canned cycles, custom macros, and conversational programming, streamlining setup and operation. It supports both inch and metric units, as well as advanced features such as constant surface speed control, stored stroke limit checks, and emergency stop and overtravel protection for enhanced safety and accuracy. The Fanuc 18i-T also provides comprehensive I/O options, with up to 2048 digital input/output points, and supports various interface modules for machine integration and automation. The control’s high-speed processing and interpolation capabilities ensure smooth, accurate motion control for demanding turning applications. Additionally, the system supports tool compensation, part program storage, and easy parameter setting via the MDI panel. The Fanuc 18i-T’s modular design allows for flexible configuration, including options for parallel axis control, twin table control, and axis synchronous control, making it adaptable to a wide range of production requirements. This combination of large working capacity and advanced CNC control delivers high productivity, precision, and reliability for heavy-duty turning operations.
