KENT CNC KLM-300SY CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 4-axis CNC turning center represents a mid-range production lathe designed for versatile turning and milling operations on medium-sized workpieces. The machine features a 10-inch chuck with a maximum turning diameter of 18.5 inches and a 10-inch swing over bed, providing adequate capacity for components requiring precision cylindrical machining. With a 24-inch maximum machining length and 2.95-inch bar capacity, this lathe accommodates both short and moderately long parts without requiring frequent re-clamping. The 4-axis configuration enables simultaneous turning and milling operations, enhanced by a FANUC CNC control system that ensures reliable, repeatable performance across diverse applications. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 3,500 RPM with 7.5 kW of driving power, this machine balances speed with torque for stable heavy-duty cuts on various materials. The rigid construction, evidenced by its 14,326-pound weight distributed across a 126" × 79" × 83" footprint, minimizes vibration during operation, supporting precision tolerances typical of aerospace and automotive sectors. The combination of multiple axes and powered turret tools allows for complete machining in a single setup, reducing throughput time and minimizing repositioning errors. This turning center is particularly suited for shops requiring flexible multi-tasking capabilities without the investment in larger, more specialized equipment, making it an economical choice for mid-volume production environments demanding consistent dimensional accuracy and surface finish quality.
