CLAUSING CK 80X200 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a maximum swing of 80 inches and a machining length capacity of 200 inches, providing ample space for large and long workpieces. It is controlled by the Fanuc 18iT CNC system, a versatile and advanced control known for its high reliability and precision in complex machining tasks. The Fanuc 18iT supports multi-axis control, rapid and precise feed rates, and spindle speed control, enabling efficient turning, milling, and slotting operations with speeds ranging typically up to 10,000 rpm on the main spindle and up to 8,000 rpm on the sub-spindle or driven tools. This control system allows fine rotational control with spindle indexing resolutions as precise as 0.01°, supporting sophisticated angular machining. It supports 6 to 8 tools on the tool post, including power-driven milling attachments, expanding machining capabilities. The control’s advanced features include S-code programming, direct command inputs for spindle speed, enhanced axis control, and multiple tool and spindle synchronization options. Coolant capacity and part handling options further optimize the machine’s capability for sustained, high-precision operations. Overall, this lathe setup is highly suitable for heavy-duty, large-scale turning and milling applications requiring precise CNC control for demanding manufacturing environments.
