HWACHEON HI-TECH 230BXL CNC LATHE

This heavy-duty engine lathe is engineered for production-grade metalworking applications requiring robust capacity and power. The machine features a 10-inch chuck and accommodates workpieces up to 29.5 inches in swing diameter with a maximum turning diameter of 16.7 inches, making it suitable for large-scale component manufacturing. The 22.8-inch machining length supports extended workpiece configurations for complex turning, facing, and boring operations. Powered by a 30 HP motor capable of delivering 3,500 RPM maximum spindle speed, this lathe provides the throughput necessary for efficient material removal across diverse metallic materials. The substantial 17,748-pound cast-iron construction ensures superior rigidity and vibration damping, critical factors for maintaining accuracy and tool life during heavy cutting operations and deep passes. The machine's cast-iron bed and precision ways deliver straightness and parallelism essential for repeatability in production environments. Its floor-standing footprint of 70.9 x 147.8 x 72.8 inches accommodates dedicated shop floor installation with integrated coolant systems and foot brake safety features typical of commercial engine lathes. This lathe combines operator-accessible manual control with the capacity to handle high-volume production runs, making it ideal for job shops, contract manufacturers, and facilities requiring precision metal components. The combination of substantial swing capacity, extended machining length, and reliable power delivery positions this machine as a workhorse for demanding turning applications where consistency and durability are paramount.
