HEADMAN HCL360L CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a precision turning machine engineered for small to medium-scale manufacturing and prototyping applications. With a maximum swing of 13.78 inches, the lathe can accommodate workpieces up to 11.81 inches in turning diameter, making it suitable for compact components requiring tight tolerances. The bar capacity of 2.05 inches allows for efficient processing of solid bar stock, while the 7.87-inch machining length provides adequate longitudinal travel for producing parts of varying specifications. The spindle operates at speeds up to 2,500 RPM, delivering sufficient rotational velocity for diverse cutting operations across different material types, from aluminum and brass to steel and other industrial alloys. The CNC control system enables programmable automation, repeatability, and complex geometries that manual machines cannot achieve, streamlining production workflows and reducing operator intervention. This configuration balances power and precision, making it ideal for job shops, tool rooms, and manufacturers requiring reliable, consistent turning capabilities without excessive floor space demands. The machine's specifications indicate a mid-range capacity tool designed to handle production runs and one-off custom parts efficiently. The combination of moderate swing diameter and robust spindle speed ensures adequate material removal rates while maintaining dimensional accuracy. This lathe represents an accessible entry point for shops seeking CNC turning capabilities or a secondary machine for facilities requiring parallel production capabilities.
