HMT MACHINE TOOLS PRECITURN CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe represents a compact yet capable turning center designed for precision machining operations with moderate workpiece dimensions. Featuring a swing diameter of 16.93 inches and maximum turning diameter of 13.78 inches, the machine accommodates mid-sized components while maintaining rigidity over the bed. The machining length of 18.90 inches enables processing of moderately long shafts and cylindrical workpieces, providing adequate longitudinal travel for various turning applications. The 13.78-inch chuck size ensures secure workholding for parts within the machine's swing capacity. Powered by a 14.75 hp motor, the lathe delivers sufficient cutting force for interrupted cuts and diverse material processing, balancing power delivery with operational efficiency. With a maximum spindle speed of 4,500 RPM, the machine enables efficient machining of both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, achieving faster production rates for smaller diameter work while maintaining control at lower speeds for heavier cuts. The FANUC CNC control system provides industry-standard programmability, enabling automated operations, rapid positioning, and precise repeatability. This control platform facilitates complex turning sequences, taper cuts, and threading operations with minimal operator intervention. The combination of specifications positions this lathe as an ideal solution for job shops, tool and die facilities, and contract manufacturers requiring versatile turning capabilities with proven reliability and ease of integration into modern production environments.
