FFG DMC DL 6GB CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a **19.29-inch swing** and a **9.45-inch machining length**, ideal for medium-sized turning operations. It accommodates a **6-inch chuck size** and supports a maximum bar capacity of **1.73 inches**, allowing for a robust range of workpieces. Powered by a **20.1 horsepower motor**, the machine delivers a maximum spindle speed of **6,000 RPM**, providing ample speed for precision turning. The maximum turning diameter is **6.69 inches**, making it suitable for detailed internal and external machining. This lathe is equipped with the **FANUC 0i-TF CNC control**, a high-performance system known for its advanced turning cycles, high-speed machining, and multi-axis control capabilities. The FANUC 0i-TF supports 2 to 3-axis control (X, Z, and optional C or Y axes), enabling complex geometries and threading with interpolated motions, including linear, circular, and polar coordinate interpolations. It features precise manual pulse generator (MPG) interface and extensive programming flexibility via G-code with macro functions, canned cycles, and custom macro variables for automation and repeatability. Additional FANUC functions include high-speed skip, spindle orientation, rigid tapping, constant surface speed control, and safety features such as spindle speed override and machine axis position limits, ensuring productivity coupled with operational safety. The controller also supports optimal servo tuning, enhancing cycle times and surface finish. Overall, this lathe combines strong mechanical specs with sophisticated FANUC CNC controls, making it capable of precise, efficient turning and threading tasks across diverse manufacturing applications.
