FEMCO WNCL 35/110 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a 2-axis CNC lathe designed for precision turning and manufacturing operations. The machine features a maximum bar capacity of 2.95 inches and can accommodate workpieces up to 16.14 inches in turning diameter with a swing clearance of 24.41 inches. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 2,500 RPM, the lathe is powered by a robust 24.9 HP motor, providing adequate torque for heavy-duty machining tasks including drilling, threading, and facing operations. The 2-axis configuration operates along the X-axis (controlling diameter) and Z-axis (controlling length), making it ideal for symmetrical and straightforward part geometries. The machine is controlled by a FANUC 18-T CNC control system, which uses computer numerical control to automate tool positioning and movement, eliminating manual operation and ensuring consistent precision across production runs. Measuring 81 inches by 137 inches by 79 inches with a substantial weight of 7,700 pounds, this lathe is a stationary industrial machine suitable for shop floor installation. The absence of a tailstock limits its application to shorter workpieces but reduces setup complexity for high-volume production of standard components. This configuration delivers repeatability as tight as ±0.0005 inches, making it suitable for aerospace, medical, and automotive applications where precision is critical.
