HARDINGE CONQUEST GT CNC LATHE

This is a precision CNC turning center equipped with a FANUC 0T numerical control system, designed for high-speed, high-accuracy lathe operations on small to mid-sized workpieces. The machine features a 5 horsepower spindle motor with a maximum rotational speed of 6,000 rpm and accommodates 5C collets up to 1-1/16" capacity with an A-2-4 spindle nose configuration. The X-axis provides 11.968" of travel while the Z-axis delivers 11.062" of longitudinal movement, enabling versatile part geometries and complex turning cycles. The swing over the way cover reaches 11.76", with a reduced swing of 2.654" over the tool slide top plate, allowing for larger diameter workpiece handling within the machine envelope. The spindle face sits 11.259" above the top plate, providing adequate clearance for tool changes and setup operations. The machine accepts square tool shanks up to 0.5" and round shanks to 0.75", supporting standard tooling configurations. Powered by a 5 Hp motor operating on 3-phase, 50/60 Hz, 230V electrical service with 10.5 KW capacity and 45/41 FLA rating, the system includes optional built-in PMC (Programmable Machine Controller) for advanced axis synchronization and independent tool post indexing. The FANUC 0T control features fully electronic absolute position detection, eliminating the need for machine zero returns after power cycles. The machine's substantial footprint of approximately 120" length, 60" depth, and 65" height, combined with its 6,500-pound weight, ensures rigid, stable machining performance suitable for production and job-shop environments.
