HMT STARTURN CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a precision turning machine engineered for efficient production of small to medium-sized components. The machine features a 7.87-inch chuck size, accommodating various workpiece geometries and materials with secure clamping capability. With a maximum turning diameter of 7.48 inches, the lathe can machine parts up to this radial dimension, providing versatility for diverse applications. The swing specification of 15.75 inches indicates the largest workpiece diameter that can rotate freely over the bed and cross slide without interference, establishing the machine's capacity envelope. The machining length of 27.56 inches defines the maximum longitudinal travel available along the spindle axis, enabling production of elongated shafts and components within this constraint. Controlled by CNC (Computer Numerical Control) technology, this machine delivers automated precision and repeatability superior to manual lathes. The CNC control system enables complex tool path programming, reducing setup time and operator intervention while maintaining tight dimensional tolerances. Standard configurations typically include a multi-station turret for quick tool indexing, automatic coolant system for extended tool life, and rapid traverse capabilities on both X and Z axes. The spindle motor provides adequate power for consistent cutting performance across various material types and feed rates. This compact CNC lathe is well-suited for job shops, small manufacturers, and production environments requiring precision turning operations on smaller workpieces with rapid job changeovers and high repeatability standards.
