HARDINGE CONQUEST H51 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 3-axis CNC turning center features an 8-inch chuck with 2-inch bar capacity, designed for precision turning operations on medium-sized workpieces. The machine delivers 20 horsepower with a maximum spindle speed of 5,000 RPM, enabling efficient material removal across various applications. With a maximum turning diameter of 12.3 inches and swing of 27.8 inches over bed, the machine accommodates parts requiring substantial envelope space. The 25.5-inch machining length provides adequate working length for complex turned components. Equipped with both a tailstock and sub-spindle, this turning center supports advanced multi-axis machining capabilities, enabling simultaneous operations and reduced cycle times for complex part geometries. The integrated tailstock enables steady rest support for extended workpieces, enhancing precision during heavy cutting operations. The sub-spindle functionality allows for back-machining and secondary operations without part reorientation, significantly improving production efficiency. Control is managed through FANUC OID CNC system, providing intuitive programming and reliable performance. Weighing 13,464 pounds, the machine features robust construction ensuring rigidity and vibration damping necessary for consistent accuracy during sustained production runs. This configuration makes the turning center ideal for job shops and manufacturing facilities requiring versatile turning capabilities with integrated live tooling potential, suitable for producing shafts, flanges, and custom precision parts with demanding tolerances and complex geometries.
