HEADMAN HTD300 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a precision turning machine designed for intermediate-scale production work. Featuring a 1.929-inch bar capacity, it accommodates solid bar stock for efficient automated operations without manual loading interruptions. The machine delivers 5.36 horsepower, providing substantial cutting force for sustained material removal across various alloys and steels. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 2,700 RPM, this lathe balances cutting velocity with torque for optimal performance on harder materials and larger diameter workpieces. The turning diameter capability of 11.811 inches, combined with a swing clearance of 13.779 inches, enables machining of relatively large components while maintaining rigidity. With a machining length of 5.512 inches, the machine accommodates medium-length parts requiring precision cylindrical operations, including facing, turning, threading, and grooving. The CNC control system provides automated tool path programming and execution, enabling repeatable accuracy and reduced operator intervention. This specification profile indicates a machine suitable for job shops, contract manufacturers, and production environments requiring versatile turning capabilities with reasonable throughput. The power-to-speed ratio suggests strong low-RPM torque characteristics, making it well-suited for interrupted cuts and heavy material engagement typical of production runs rather than high-speed finishing operations. Overall, this lathe represents a capable mid-range CNC turning center for general metalworking applications.
