KINGSTON HK-3000 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This heavy-duty CNC lathe is engineered for large-scale turning operations and precision machining of extended workpieces. The machine features a 24-inch chuck capacity, accommodating substantial bar stock up to 12 inches, making it suitable for industrial applications requiring robust workholding solutions. With a maximum swing of 30 inches over the bed, this lathe can process large-diameter components while maintaining rigidity and accuracy. The 120-inch distance between centers enables machining of extended shafts and pipes, providing exceptional versatility for longer parts that demand precision turning. The spindle speed range of 300 RPM is optimized for heavy-duty turning operations on larger workpieces and materials requiring lower rotational speeds for stability and tool longevity. The swing over cross slide of 20.5 inches defines the maximum workpiece diameter that can rotate above the cross slide, enhancing the machine's capacity for broader workpiece handling. A 22-inch bed width contributes to overall machine stability and precision during machining operations. The dual tailstock configuration—featuring both front and rear chucks—provides enhanced flexibility for complex turning sequences, allowing simultaneous workholding options or sequential operations without repositioning. This advanced configuration supports sophisticated multi-operation capabilities typical of CNC turning centers. The combination of these specifications positions this machine as an industrial-grade turning center designed for high-precision production of large, complex components in demanding manufacturing environments.
