KINGSTON CL68C X 3000 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a heavy-duty, 2-axis CNC lathe engineered for large-scale industrial turning operations. The machine features a 45-inch swing capacity over the bed, enabling machining of substantial workpieces up to that diameter. With an extended machining length of 120 inches, this lathe accommodates long components, making it ideal for extended shaft work and cylindrical parts requiring significant longitudinal cutting. The dual-axis configuration (X and Z) provides precise control over diameter and length operations, with the X-axis governing radial tool movement and the Z-axis controlling longitudinal traverse. Equipped with a robust 60 HP spindle motor, the machine delivers exceptional cutting power for demanding operations. The maximum spindle speed of 500 RPM suits heavy interrupted cuts and large-diameter workpiece operations. Bar capacity extends to 14.7 inches, facilitating efficient chuck-based stock feeding for automated production runs. The integrated tailstock provides essential support for extended workpiece length, enhancing stability and precision during turning operations. CNC control via Fanuc 0iTF ensures reliable, repeatable programming with industry-standard capabilities for complex machining sequences. Built for industrial environments requiring consistent output of precision-turned components, this lathe balances power, capacity, and control for production-oriented applications in automotive, industrial equipment, and heavy machinery component manufacturing.
