DMTG CKE6180Z CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 20" chuck and a 31.5" swing, accommodating workpieces up to 31.5" in diameter with a maximum machining length of 120". It operates on 2 axes (X and Z), with an X-axis travel of 16.5" and multiple Z-axis travel options ranging from 30.9" to 186.4", enabling versatility for various part lengths. The lathe supports a 3.9" bar capacity via a 3.9" spindle bore and is powered by a 15 HP motor, delivering spindle speeds from 40 to 1,000 RPM with a maximum of 1,000 RPM for effective turning. Equipped with a D11 spindle nose, the machine offers precise control with rapid feed rates of 160 IPM on the X-axis and 315 IPM on the Z-axis. The tailstock features a quill diameter of 3.94" with 9.45" travel and an MT6 taper for supporting long workpieces and ensuring accuracy during operations. A 4-station turret supports various cutting tools with a tool shank width of 1.5", index time between adjacent stations of 2.9 seconds, and turret accuracy of 0.0003", enabling fast and precise tool changes. This lathe is suitable for producing medium to large cylindrical parts with high precision, combining robust power, extensive travel ranges, and reliable accuracy. The combination of a large chuck, substantial swing, and lengthy machining capacity makes it effective for complex turning tasks in metalworking and manufacturing applications requiring repeatable precision and efficient multi-tool operation.
