HARDINGE ST-220B CNC LATHE

The Fanuc 18i-T CNC Control is a high-performance control system designed for precision turning and milling operations. It features a robust architecture supporting advanced machining functions, including live tooling and multi-axis control. The machine offers an X-axis travel of 2.05 inches and a Z-axis travel of 8.27 inches, enabling accurate positioning for small to medium-sized workpieces. With a maximum turning/cutting length of 10.35 inches and a maximum cutting/turning diameter of 0.75 inches, it is well-suited for compact, high-precision components. The bar capacity is also 0.75 inches, allowing efficient bar-fed production. The primary spindle operates at speeds up to 8,000 RPM, powered by a 5 HP motor, ensuring high-speed cutting performance and excellent surface finishes. A secondary spindle is included, running at up to 4,000 RPM with a 1.5 HP motor, facilitating backworking and secondary operations without manual intervention. For milling capabilities, the live tooling system supports a maximum speed of 4,000 RPM, with three cross-working and one end-working live tools, enabling complex milling, drilling, and tapping operations in a single setup. The Fanuc 18i-T control provides intuitive programming, reliable operation, and seamless integration of turning and milling functions, making it ideal for high-precision, multi-tasking applications in demanding production environments.
