LEADWELL LTC-50CL CNC LATHE

This is a heavy-duty CNC lathe designed for large-scale turning operations and precision manufacturing. The machine features an 18-inch chuck, accommodating substantial workpieces with an impressive 35.4-inch swing over bed, enabling the machining of large-diameter components. The bar capacity of 4.6 inches supports efficient automatic feeding of material stock, facilitating high-volume production runs with minimal manual intervention. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 1,500 RPM, this lathe is optimized for machining larger workpieces that require lower cutting speeds, particularly suitable for heavy roughing operations and work with larger diameters where high torque is essential. The inclusion of a tailstock provides additional support for extended workpieces, enhancing rigidity and enabling the production of longer parts with improved concentricity and reduced deflection during machining. The machine is equipped with a FANUC 0I-TD CNC control system, a industry-standard platform delivering advanced programming capabilities, precise position control, and reliable automation for complex turning operations. This control system enables sophisticated tool path programming, multi-axis coordination, and real-time monitoring for consistent part accuracy. The combination of large chuck capacity, substantial swing diameter, and dedicated tailstock support positions this lathe for versatile applications spanning automotive components, industrial shafts, flanges, and other large-diameter parts requiring precision turning and finishing operations. The lower RPM range paired with robust mechanical design indicates this machine prioritizes power and stability for demanding production environments.
