EUROTECH ELITE 730SL-Y CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features an 8-inch chuck with a 2.63-inch bar capacity, designed for precision turning operations on cylindrical workpieces. The machine accommodates parts up to 12.8 inches in maximum turning diameter and 17.7 inches between centers, providing substantial workpiece capacity for mid-range production. The 20.5-inch swing specification allows adequate clearance for radial tool movement without interference. Operating at 4,000 RPM spindle speed, the lathe delivers consistent rotational performance for various material applications. The Fanuc 18-T control system provides computer numerical control capabilities for precise tool path execution and repeatability. The 12-station turret accommodates multiple cutting tools, reducing setup time and enabling complex multi-operation sequences in a single setup. Advanced live tooling features include C-axis orientation and Y-axis positioning, both operating at 4,000 RPM, enabling milling, drilling, and engraving operations alongside traditional turning without workpiece repositioning. An integrated chip conveyor system automates chip removal during extended production runs, improving operator safety and machine efficiency. The sub-spindle tool presetter enhances workflow by pre-positioning and verifying tools before cutting cycles commence. The automatic bar feed system enables lights-out production capabilities, allowing continuous operation of small to medium-sized components with minimal manual intervention, making this lathe suitable for high-volume manufacturing environments requiring exceptional precision and operational flexibility.
