Technical Description
This advanced CNC lathe is equipped with a Fanuc 31i-Model A control, providing robust multi-axis and multi-path capabilities for high-speed, high-precision machining. The control supports up to 4 paths and 26 total control axes (20 feed axes, 6 spindles), with a maximum of 4 simultaneous control axes (5 axes for the 31i-A5 variant), enabling complex part production and flexible machine configuration. The machine features a 2.56-inch bar capacity, a 37.5-inch distance between centers, and a 20-inch swing over diameter, making it suitable for a wide range of workpiece sizes. The main spindle delivers 35 HP with a maximum speed of 4,000 RPM, a 6-inch ASA nose, and a 3.15-inch bore, while the sub-spindle provides 15 HP, 5,000 RPM, a 5-inch ASA nose, and a 2.17-inch bore, supporting efficient secondary operations. The turret system offers 12 stations with a maximum of 192 tools, rapid indexing of 0.15 seconds per position, and up to 24 live tool stations (48 live tools total), with standard and maximum tool speeds of 4,000 and 6,000 RPM, respectively. This configuration ensures high productivity, accuracy, and versatility for demanding turning and milling applications.
