LIJEHON LAC - 2500 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

A Computer Numerical Control (CNC) lathe engineered for heavy-duty turning operations on large-diameter workpieces. This machine features a maximum bar capacity of 9 inches, accommodating substantial stock material for extended production runs. The spindle operates at a maximum of 350 RPM, optimized for precision work on oversized components requiring controlled cutting speeds and reduced tool wear. The lathe boasts an impressive maximum turning diameter of 78.74 inches, enabling the machining of significantly large cylindrical parts. The swing specification of 98.43 inches indicates the clearance available above the ways, defining the largest diameter workpiece that can safely rotate without interference from machine guarding or cross-slide assemblies. Equipped with a tailstock, this machine provides essential support for longer workpieces during machining operations, enhancing stability and reducing deflection for improved accuracy. The absence of live tooling means cutting tools remain stationary while the workpiece rotates, limiting operations to traditional turning, threading, and facing processes. CNC control automation eliminates manual operation, with a computer determining spindle speed, feed rates, and precise tool positioning through programmed instructions. This configuration delivers repeatability and consistency across production runs, achieving precision levels as tight as ±0.0005 inches for critical applications. Ideal for aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment manufacturing requiring large-component precision machining.
