CNC NEW, INC. SL-5 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a **2-axis configuration** designed for precision turning operations with a **swing capacity of 14.90 inches** and a **maximum turning diameter of 13.38 inches**. The machine supports a **machining length up to 11.21 inches**, enabling the machining of moderately sized cylindrical parts. Its spindle is powered by a **3.7 kW motor**, allowing a maximum spindle speed of **4,500 RPM**, sufficient for a variety of metal turning applications. Equipped with a **tailstock**, this lathe provides extra support for long or slender workpieces during machining, enhancing accuracy and stability. The control system is fully **CNC**, automating tool movements and ensuring high repeatability and precision in operations. The 2-axis system includes linear motions typically along the X-axis (diameter control) and Z-axis (length control), making it suitable for standard turning tasks such as facing, external and internal turning, and threading. With its compact machining envelope and moderate power specification, this lathe is ideal for applications that require precise yet efficient turning of small to medium-sized parts in industries like manufacturing, prototyping, and maintenance. The CNC control enhances consistency and process automation, reducing operator input and improving part quality while the tailstock ensures stable machining for longer workpieces. Overall, it balances power, precision, and capability within a compact footprint optimized for turning diameters just above 13 inches and machining lengths near 11 inches.
