ECOCA MT-312MC/490 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe represents a mid-range turning center equipped with robust specifications suited for precision manufacturing and production runs. The machine features a 12-inch chuck capacity, providing secure workpiece holding for a variety of bar stock and component sizes. With a maximum spindle speed of 3,200 RPM and 24.8 horsepower motor, the lathe delivers sufficient power and speed for efficient turning operations across diverse materials. The 13-inch maximum turning diameter combined with a 23.6-inch swing capacity enables machining of moderately sized cylindrical workpieces with adequate clearance over the cross slide and bed. The 19.3-inch longitudinal machining length permits extended cutting operations along the workpiece axis, accommodating medium to long-shaft components. The integrated tailstock provides essential support for extended workpiece holding, enhancing stability during drilling and turning operations on longer parts. Computer Numerical Control (CNC) technology enables automated, repeatable precision machining with programmable tool paths and feed rates, eliminating manual operator intervention and improving consistency. This configuration suits manufacturers requiring versatile turning capabilities for production work, prototype development, and job-shop applications. The machine balances cutting power with dimensional capacity, making it practical for general metal cutting across mild steel, aluminum, and other machinable alloys without excessive investment in larger industrial-scale equipment.
