COMI FBL-230 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a compact CNC turning center designed for precision cylindrical machining operations. With a machining length of 17.44 inches and a turning diameter capacity of 12.24 inches, this machine is well-suited for producing small to medium-sized rotational components. The bar capacity of 2.05 inches accommodates standard material stock sizes commonly used in production environments. The CNC control system enables automated, computer-controlled machining with multi-axis capabilities for complex part geometries. This allows for precise positioning accuracy and repeat positioning accuracy in the micron range, essential for high-tolerance manufacturing. The machine performs turning operations where material is secured to and rotated by the main spindle while cutting tools move along linear axes to remove material and create finished components. This class of turning center typically features horizontal orientation, which is the most common configuration for production work. The compact footprint makes it ideal for job shops, toolrooms, and facilities with space constraints while maintaining substantial work capacity. Advanced features may include automated chip management systems, thermal stability technology to compensate for ambient temperature variations, and integrated coolant delivery systems. The machine supports various cutting operations including turning, boring, and potentially threading, depending on specific configuration. Its specifications make it suitable for low to medium-volume production runs and prototype development. The CNC control provides programmable tool paths, eliminating manual setup time and improving consistency across production batches.
