CUBIC GT MAX 25 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a compact 2-axis CNC milling machine designed for precision machining operations on smaller workpieces. The machine features a machining length capacity of 3.07 inches and accommodates bar stock up to 1.02 inches in diameter, making it suitable for producing small components in production environments. Powered by a 3.7 kW motor, the spindle delivers a maximum rotational speed of 5,000 RPM, providing adequate cutting force for both ferrous and non-ferrous materials while maintaining thermal stability during extended operations. The machine is controlled by a FANUC 31IB CNC controller, a industry-standard platform renowned for reliability and ease of programming. This control system enables automated tool path execution, precise positioning, and repeatable accuracy essential for high-volume production runs. The two-axis configuration allows independent X and Y-axis movement, enabling efficient horizontal and vertical positioning of cutting tools relative to the workpiece. The 3.7 kW power rating balances operational efficiency with adequate torque delivery for standard milling applications. The 5,000 RPM maximum spindle speed is optimized for intermediate-speed cutting operations, offering a practical compromise between surface finish quality and material removal rates. This specification makes the machine well-suited for aluminum, brass, plastics, and softer steel machining tasks. The compact footprint and modest power consumption make it ideal for small job shops, educational institutions, and facilities with limited floor space or electrical infrastructure. The FANUC controller integration ensures compatibility with standard CNC programming languages and existing production workflows.
