CLAUSING CL 45X240 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe machine features a **45-inch swing** capacity and a **240-inch machining length**, enabling the processing of large-diameter and long workpieces with precision. It is controlled by a **Fanuc 18iT CNC control system**, known for its high reliability and advanced functionality in multi-axis machining operations. The Fanuc 18iT supports up to 12 controlled axes with nano interpolation and offers precise motion increments as fine as 0.001 mm (0.0001 inches), ensuring high accuracy in complex machining tasks. Typical Fanuc 18iT systems include features such as exact position detection, sophisticated I/O management, and compatibility with multiple communication protocols, allowing seamless integration into automated production lines. The control unit supports inch/metric conversion, emergency stop, and overtravel protection for enhanced operational safety. This combination of machine specifications and control technology provides robust versatility for heavy-duty turning, threading, and contouring operations, making it suitable for industries requiring precise, long-span machining on large components. The CNC’s capability to handle multiple tooling options and axes enhances machining versatility while maintaining consistent repeatability and high throughput.
