Technical Description
This CNC lathe features a 19.29-inch swing and a machining length of 7.28 inches, accommodating workpieces up to 6.69 inches in turning diameter. Designed for versatility, it supports a 10-inch chuck and a bar capacity of 2.91 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of turning applications. The machine is powered by a robust 20.1 hp spindle, capable of reaching a maximum speed of 3,500 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and high productivity. Equipped with the advanced FANUC 0i-TF CNC control, it delivers precise axis management, supporting up to three controlled axes (X, Z, and C) with positioning, linear, circular, and cylindrical interpolation, as well as thread cutting, multi-threading, and continuous threading capabilities. The control system includes manual pulse generator (MPG) support, jog mode, feed and table speed override switches, and direct workpiece coordinate system presetting for ease of setup and operation. Advanced features such as dwell, skip, high-speed skip, reference position return, and programmable data input enhance machining flexibility. The FANUC 0i-TF also supports canned cycles, sub-program calls, custom macros, and auxiliary function lock, enabling complex part programming and automation. With its high-speed communications, enhanced motion control, and reliability, this lathe is ideal for high-precision turning operations in demanding production environments.
