CLAUSING CC 50X133 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This precision lathe features a CNC Fanuc 18i-T control system, designed for advanced turning and threading operations. The machine accommodates a maximum swing of 50 inches over the bed, providing substantial capacity for large-diameter workpiece machining. With a machining length of 133 inches, this lathe enables extended workpiece engagement, making it suitable for producing lengthy components in a single setup. The Fanuc 18i-T controller represents a sophisticated numerical control platform capable of managing multiple axes and paths simultaneously. This control system supports advanced features including precise coordinate system management, stored stroke limit checking, and multi-path processing capabilities for complex part geometries. The 18i-T variant is specifically optimized for turning applications, offering specialized functions for lathe operations. The combination of the 50-inch swing with the 133-inch machining length creates a versatile platform for medium to large-scale production runs and prototype development. This configuration allows operators to machine complex profiles, implement multiple threading passes, and perform detailed finishing operations without repositioning the workpiece. The Fanuc 18i-T control enables programmable tool compensation, constant surface speed control, and adaptive feeding strategies to optimize cutting performance across varying material compositions and workpiece diameters. This lathe configuration is particularly suited for aerospace, automotive, and heavy industrial applications requiring high-precision turning with extended workpiece accommodation. The advanced CNC control system ensures repeatability and accuracy while supporting modern machining practices and tool monitoring capabilities.
