JOHNFORD - ROUNDTOP MACHINERY COMPANY LC-41 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The JOHNFORD LC-41 Horizontal Machining Center is a precision 2-axis turning center engineered for heavy-duty production applications. This machine features a robust single main spindle with an 18-inch chuck diameter capable of accommodating workpieces up to 25.6 inches in turning diameter. The spindle operates at a maximum speed of 1,200 RPM with 50 horsepower, delivering substantial torque for demanding machining operations on large-diameter components. The machine accommodates turning lengths up to 315 inches, making it suitable for extended cylindrical workpieces and complex multi-operation jobs. The Z-axis travel distance extends to 80 inches, with an optional configuration reaching 315 inches for enhanced longitudinal machining capabilities. Tool management is handled by a turret-style primary tool carrier with a capacity of 12 tools, allowing up to one simultaneous cutting tool for efficient single-point or multi-point operations. The 2-axis configuration provides essential X and Z-axis control for precise diameter and length machining. This horizontal layout with its substantial swing capability at 41 inches enables efficient chip evacuation and accessibility for large workpiece handling. The LC-41 is ideally suited for aerospace, heavy equipment manufacturing, and industrial applications requiring high-precision turning of large-diameter components with extended working lengths and consistent repeatability.
