HMT MACHINE TOOLS STALLION HS CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a compact precision turning center equipped with FANUC control systems, designed for small-to-medium precision machining operations. The machine features a maximum swing of 16.53 inches over the bed, enabling machining of workpieces up to 5.90 inches in turning diameter. With a machining length capacity of 18.11 inches, it accommodates moderately sized components while maintaining rigid support between headstock and tailstock centers. The bar capacity of 1.73 inches allows efficient automatic bar feeding for high-volume production runs of smaller diameter parts. Powered by a 7.37 horsepower spindle motor, the machine delivers adequate cutting force for various materials and operations. The spindle reaches a maximum rotational speed of 8,000 RPM, enabling efficient machining of intricate designs and faster production cycles. This speed range is optimal for precision work on brass, steel, and other standard industrial materials. The FANUC CNC control system provides reliable programming capability, repeatability, and positioning accuracy essential for precision turning operations. This configuration makes the lathe suitable for applications including shaft turning, threading, boring, and facing operations on smaller workpieces. The combination of moderate spindle power, compact swing diameter, and reasonable bar capacity positions this machine as an economical solution for job shops and manufacturers requiring versatile precision turning capabilities without the expense of larger industrial turning centers.
