CLAUSING CC 35X133 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

The Hanwha SL-12S is a 5-axis CNC Swiss-type lathe equipped with a FANUC 18iT control system, delivering precision machining capabilities for complex component production. This machine features a maximum swing diameter of 35 inches and a substantial machining length of 133 inches, accommodating larger workpieces than traditional Swiss lathes. The FANUC 18iT controller provides advanced CNC functionality with support for multi-axis simultaneous interpolation and programmable control parameters. The machine is configured with dual spindles: a main spindle operating at 12,000 RPM with 1.5/2.2 kW drive power, and a sub-spindle capable of 6,000 RPM with 0.65/1.1 kW drive. With live tooling, C-axis, and Y-axis capabilities, this lathe enables complex turning and milling operations in a single setup, minimizing part handling and reducing production time. The minimum input and motion increments of 0.001mm (0.0001 inches) ensure exceptional dimensional accuracy. Equipped with a bar feeder for automated workpiece loading, the machine is designed for high-volume production environments requiring tight tolerances. The 5-axis configuration allows for simultaneous multi-directional cutting operations, substantially improving part complexity capabilities. At 4,200 pounds, the machine provides rigid support for sustained precision work. The FANUC 18iT control integrates standard CNC parameters for data I/O, communication protocols, and axis management, enabling seamless integration into modern manufacturing facilities with networked CNC environments.
