CLAUSING CL 40X160 CNC LATHES

Technical Description

The Hanwha SL-12S is a precision 5-axis CNC Swiss-type lathe featuring FANUC 18iT control technology. This machine delivers exceptional capability for complex component manufacturing with a maximum swing of 40 inches and extended machining length of 160 inches, accommodating larger workpieces than standard Swiss lathes. The dual-spindle configuration includes a main spindle operating at 12,000 RPM with 1.5/2.2 KW drive power and a sub-spindle running at 6,000 RPM with 0.65/1.1 KW drive capacity. Both spindles accommodate 12mm (.472") maximum diameter stock. The FANUC 18iT CNC control system provides sophisticated multi-axis coordination with advanced interpolation capabilities, supporting ISO and EIA programming formats. The machine incorporates live tooling, C-axis rotation, and Y-axis capability, enabling simultaneous multi-face machining operations. Precision is assured through minimum input and motion increments of 0.001mm (0.0001"), facilitating tight tolerance work. Standard equipment includes an integrated bar feeder for automated stock advancement and comprehensive sub-spindle functionality for secondary operations. The rigid cast-iron construction weighs 4,200 lbs, providing stable vibration-free machining. This configuration makes the machine ideal for high-volume production of intricate medical devices, aerospace components, and precision instrumentation requiring concurrent operations on multiple faces. The combination of extended working envelope, dual-spindle architecture, and FANUC control delivers versatile manufacturing solutions for demanding precision applications.
