LEADWELL T-5IM CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This compact CNC lathe features an 18.9-inch swing over bed, enabling machining of workpieces up to 7.8 inches in turning diameter. The machine accommodates a maximum machining length of 6 inches with a 6-inch hydraulic chuck, making it well-suited for precision turning of small to mid-sized components. With a bar capacity of 1.77 inches, the lathe efficiently handles bar stock feeding for automated production runs. The spindle delivers a maximum speed of 4,000 RPM, providing adequate cutting velocity for various materials and operations. The CNC control system enables programmable operations with precise repeatability and positioning accuracy, eliminating manual intervention for complex turning tasks. This configuration balances rigidity with compact footprint, making it ideal for job shops, tool rooms, and prototype manufacturing environments. The combination of rapid spindle speeds and controlled feed rates allows operators to achieve high surface finish quality while maintaining dimensional accuracy. The machine's modest swing and length specifications make it particularly suitable for precision components requiring tight tolerances in aerospace, medical device, and automotive industries. Its all-in-one capability for turning, threading, and facing operations—managed through intuitive CNC programming—delivers production efficiency without requiring extensive floor space.
