IKEGAI GENESIS 1208 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 21.85-inch swing and a machining length of 21.65 inches, supporting workpieces up to a turning diameter of 10.2 inches. It has an 8-inch chuck size and includes a tailstock, facilitating stable support for longer workpieces during machining. The machine operates on two controlled axes, ensuring precise positioning and turning capabilities. Power is supplied by a 20 HP motor, allowing a maximum spindle speed of 5,000 RPM to accommodate a wide range of cutting speeds. The control system is a Fanuc 21iT CNC controller, which provides advanced 2-axis control with digital servo functions and operator-friendly interfaces including a 10.5-inch color flat screen MDI unit and operator keyboard. This Fanuc model supports essential CNC programming functions such as cutter radius compensation, constant surface speed control, and multiple pre-defined repetitive machining cycles. The control facilitates both circular and linear interpolation, enabling efficient, precise tool paths for turning operations. Its interface supports data input/output functions and interaction with external memory devices, optimizing workflow and program management. The tailstock and spindle power combined with the Fanuc 21iT control system provide a robust setup suitable for precise, automated turning processes in a mid-size lathe configuration. This system is well-suited for producing accurate cylindrical parts with controlled feeds and speeds in industrial environments.
