HYUNDAI WIA LV500R/LM CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a 2-axis CNC lathe featuring a 15-inch chuck capacity and substantial swing diameter of 31.5 inches, designed for heavy-duty turning operations on cylindrical workpieces. The machine delivers impressive power output of 29.5 horsepower, enabling efficient material removal across ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 2,000 RPM, this lathe prioritizes torque over speed, making it well-suited for larger diameter workpieces and deep cutting applications requiring sustained force. The 23.6-inch machining length accommodates medium to long components, while the two-axis configuration (X and Z axes) provides essential horizontal and longitudinal movement for facing, turning, and threading operations. CNC control delivers programmable automation, eliminating manual operator intervention and ensuring consistent part-to-part repeatability. The substantial power envelope and conservative spindle speed indicate this machine targets precision work in industrial settings, including aerospace, automotive, and heavy manufacturing sectors. Its design principles follow traditional lathe architecture with motorized spindle rotation and computer-controlled tool path execution. The combination of generous chuck size, extended machining length, and high power output positions this lathe for production runs of complex turned components requiring tight tolerances and reliable performance in demanding manufacturing environments.
