HANKOOK PROTEC-9NA/8000 CNC LATHE

This 2-axis CNC machine represents a heavy-duty lathe system engineered for large-scale production work. With a commanding 22 kW power output and a maximum spindle speed of 1,000 RPM, the machine delivers substantial torque suitable for demanding turning operations on oversized workpieces. The 37.4-inch swing capacity enables machining of large-diameter components, while the exceptional 315-inch machining length accommodates extended parts, making this system ideal for aerospace, marine, and industrial manufacturing applications where dimensional scale is paramount. The inclusion of a tailstock extends versatility, allowing support for lengthy workpieces and enabling complex operations such as drilling, boring, and threading along extended lengths. This feature significantly enhances precision and reduces deflection during critical cuts. The CNC control system automates positioning and feed rates with repeatable accuracy, eliminating manual intervention and enabling consistent part quality across production runs. The 2-axis configuration provides simultaneous X and Z-axis motion control, sufficient for traditional turning and facing operations while maintaining design simplicity and operational efficiency. This configuration delivers rapid tool positioning and coordinated interpolation for smooth contours and complex geometries. The combination of high power delivery, substantial swing diameter, extended machining length, and CNC automation positions this machine for heavy production work. It represents an investment in capability for shops requiring precision turning of large components with minimal operator intervention, maximizing throughput and repeatability in high-volume manufacturing environments.
