CLAUSING CK 80X318 CNC LATHE

The Star Fanuc 18i-T CNC control lathe is a precision turning center engineered for heavy-duty production work on large components. With an 80-inch swing capacity and 318-inch machining length, this machine accommodates substantial workpieces requiring extended turning operations. The Fanuc 18i-T control system provides advanced numerical control capabilities with 7-axis simultaneous operation, enabling complex multi-axis turning, boring, and cross-milling functions. The main spindle operates at 500-10,000 RPM with AC spindle drive technology, while the sub-spindle ranges from 500-8,000 RPM for back-working operations. The machine features a 6-position tool post with 3-8 power-driven tools and an 8,000 RPM maximum spindle speed for the power-driven attachment, supporting advanced cutting strategies and integrated milling capabilities. Rapid feed rates reach 787.4 inches per minute on linear axes (Z, X, Y, ZB, XB) with C-axis capability at 550 RPM. The control offers exceptional precision with minimum input increment of 0.0001 inches, C-axis indexing at 0.01 degrees, and integrated servo-driven axis control for dimensional accuracy. Additional capabilities include a 40.9-gallon coolant system, part conveyor compatibility, and optional live back-working tools. This configuration makes the machine ideal for large-diameter shaft work, complex part geometries, and high-precision production environments requiring simultaneous multi-axis control.
