FORCE ONE FCL-20TS CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe is a precision turning machine equipped with an 8.27-inch chuck designed to securely hold workpieces during machining operations. The machine features a maximum bar capacity of 2.01 inches, allowing it to accommodate bar stock feeders for automated production runs. With a turning diameter capability of 19.29 inches, the lathe can machine workpieces up to this radial dimension, making it suitable for mid-range production applications. The swing specification of 25.59 inches indicates the largest diameter workpiece that can rotate above the bed and cross slide without obstruction, providing versatility for various part geometries. Controlled by a CNC (Computer Numerical Control) system, this machine operates on programmable coordinates to achieve precise, repeatable machining results. The CNC control enables automated tool positioning, spindle speed management, and axis coordination for complex turning operations including facing, threading, and contouring. This lathe configuration typically operates on multiple axes—commonly 2 to 3 axes—allowing simultaneous movement along the X (cross) and Z (longitudinal) directions for enhanced productivity. The combination of these specifications positions this machine as an efficient tool for production shops requiring reliable precision turning of mid-sized components with consistent accuracy and minimal operator intervention.
