LEADWELL LTC-35CL CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a precision turning machine equipped with a 15-inch chuck for secure workpiece holding and capable of accommodating bar stock up to 4.5 inches in diameter. The machine features a maximum swing of 28.3 inches over the bed, enabling the machining of larger diameter workpieces. With a maximum spindle speed of 2,000 RPM, the lathe delivers controlled rotational performance suitable for various turning operations and material types. The inclusion of a tailstock provides essential support for extended workpieces, enhancing stability during drilling, turning, and other longitudinal machining operations. The machine operates under full Computer Numerical Control (CNC), allowing for automated, programmable tool movements and precise dimensional accuracy. This configuration supports standard 2-axis operations along the X and Z axes, with the ability to perform traditional turning, boring, and facing operations. The robust design incorporates a rigidly constructed bed way system that maintains precision throughout the machining process. The 15-inch chuck size combined with 4.5-inch bar capacity makes this lathe suitable for mid-range production runs and job shop applications requiring consistent, repeatable results. The moderate spindle speed of 2,000 RPM is optimized for heavy-duty cutting and working with various materials, prioritizing torque and tool life over rapid production speeds. This machine represents a capable platform for precision manufacturing with reliable CNC automation and versatile workholding capabilities.
