KRAFT DS-400 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a mid-range 2-axis CNC lathe designed for precision turning operations with substantial workpiece capacity. The machine features a 17.32-inch swing over bed and accommodates workpieces up to 39.37 inches in length, making it suitable for medium to large component production. The 7.87-inch chuck size provides secure workholding for diverse part geometries, while the 39.37-inch bar capacity enables efficient automatic feeding for high-volume production runs. The spindle delivers 24.8 horsepower with a maximum rotational speed of 4,500 RPM, offering balanced power and speed for both roughing and finishing operations across various material types. This output enables efficient metal removal rates while maintaining precision in complex turning tasks. The 15.75-inch maximum turning diameter allows machining of larger diameter components compared to compact models. Operating on two linear axes (X and Z), the lathe controls tool positioning for radial and longitudinal movement, ideal for symmetrical parts and standard turning applications. The included tailstock provides essential support for longer workpieces, enhancing workholding stability during extended cutting operations. The machine offers multiple CNC control system options—FANUC, SIEMENS, FAGOR, or SINUMERIK—allowing integration with existing shop floor systems and programmer expertise. These industrial-grade controls enable precise tool path execution and repeatability essential for production environments. CNC lathes of this caliber typically achieve precision levels of ±0.0005 inches, ensuring consistent part quality across production runs.
