JOHNFORD ST-60B-CF CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a swing over bed and cross slide both measuring 39.4 inches, allowing for machining of substantial diameter workpieces. It supports a maximum turning length of 47 inches, enabling the processing of moderately long parts. The machine’s through-spindle bore diameter is 5 inches, accommodating bar stock or material with significant cross-sectional size. The spindle operates at speeds up to 1400 RPM, suitable for a variety of turning operations, balancing speed and torque for efficient cutting. Equipped with a 12-position turret, it provides flexibility in tooling options, permitting multiple tools to be indexed quickly for sequential machining tasks without manual intervention. The control system is governed by the Fanuc 0iTD CNC control, a widely used and reliable interface known for precision, ease of programming, and robust functionality in CNC turning centers. This setup optimizes accuracy and repeatability in complex turning operations, from roughing to finishing. Overall, the combination of bed and cross slide capacity, spindle bore, turret index positions, and advanced Fanuc controls makes this lathe suitable for detailed and versatile metalworking applications, balancing workspace dimensions with powerful, modern CNC control technology for efficient production and precision machining.
