KINGSTON CL38A X 1000 CNC LATHE

This is a mid-range 2-axis CNC lathe engineered for general-purpose turning operations and small-to-medium batch production. The machine features a 26-inch swing over bed and 40-inch maximum machining length, providing substantial capacity for diverse workpiece geometries. The 4.7-inch bar capacity accommodates both solid bar stock and hollow components, with full tailstock support enabling precision center work and extended part support during machining. Powered by a robust 30 HP main spindle motor, the lathe delivers sufficient torque and cutting force for demanding material removal applications. The spindle speed range of 180 to 1,600 RPM, controlled through a Fanuc 0iTF CNC control system, enables efficient machining of both large-diameter and smaller precision components. The Fanuc 0iTF controller provides advanced programming capabilities, allowing complex tool paths, multiple-operation sequencing, and adaptive feed control for optimized surface finishes and tool life. The fundamental 2-axis configuration (X and Z) controls radial tool movement for diameter adjustment and longitudinal feed along the workpiece length. This proven architecture excels at producing symmetrical turned parts, shafts, sleeves, and stepped components common in automotive, machinery, and industrial manufacturing sectors. The inclusion of an automatic tailstock enhances repeatability and reduces setup time for production runs. With precision capabilities typically reaching ±0.005 inches and high repeatability standards, this lathe suits applications requiring consistent dimensional control. The combination of substantial swing, extended machining length, powerful spindle, and modern CNC control makes this machine ideal for job shops and manufacturers requiring reliable, versatile turning capabilities.
