JOHNFORD SL-800B CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe features an 18-inch chuck size, accommodating workpieces up to 4.56 inches in bar capacity, making it suitable for medium to large cylindrical parts. Powered by a robust 35-horsepower motor, the machine delivers reliable performance for demanding turning operations, with a maximum spindle speed of 2,000 RPM for efficient material removal and precision finishing. The maximum turning diameter is 21.25 inches, and the swing over the bed reaches 27.55 inches, allowing for substantial workpiece dimensions. The machining length extends up to 85 inches, ideal for long shafts and similar components. The absence of a tailstock and live tooling indicates a focus on standard turning rather than secondary operations or support for very long workpieces. Control is managed via a Fanuc 0iT-D CNC system, providing advanced programming, accuracy, and ease of operation. The machine’s overall dimensions are 244 x 102 x 104 inches, with a weight of 33,000 pounds, reflecting its heavy-duty construction and stability during high-speed machining. This lathe is engineered for high-precision, high-repeatability production in industrial environments, capable of handling a wide range of materials and part geometries within its specified limits.
