GEDEE WEILER LEAN TURN 42 CNC LATHE

This compact CNC lathe features a 14.96-inch swing over bed, accommodating workpieces with a maximum turning diameter of 3.94 inches. The machine utilizes a 5.12-inch chuck for secure workpiece holding and accepts bar stock up to 1.65 inches in diameter, making it suitable for production runs of smaller precision components. Equipped with a 2-axis CNC control system, the lathe delivers programmable X and Z-axis movements for automated turning and facing operations. The spindle reaches maximum speeds of 4,000 RPM, providing adequate cutting velocities for various materials and tool geometries across small-part machining applications. The machine's 2,866-pound construction provides sufficient rigidity for consistent part accuracy while remaining practical for workshop installation. This lathe is well-suited for prototype development, small-batch production, and general job shop work requiring precision turning of shafts, bushings, and similarly-scaled components. The CNC control enables repeatable positioning and feed rate control, reducing setup time between jobs and improving dimensional consistency. The configuration balances performance with compact footprint, making it an economical choice for operations where space is limited but precision turning capability is essential. Ideal applications include medical device components, instrument parts, and custom fastener production where tight tolerances and rapid turnaround are required.
