MAZAK CT4500M CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This is a heavy-duty CNC turning center equipped with a Mazatrol 640MT Pro control system, designed for precision cylindrical and live-milling operations. The machine features an 80-inch distance between centers with a maximum swing over bed of 33.86 inches, accommodating workpieces up to 31.89 inches in cutting diameter. The generous 82.36-inch maximum turning length combined with 10.80-inch bar capacity makes it suitable for extended shaft and tubular component machining. The spindle assembly consists of a single 50 HP motor delivering 2,400 RPM at the main spindle with a 12.50-inch bore and A2-20 nose configuration, while live-milling capability reaches 3,000 RPM for secondary operations. Linear travel specifications include 21.26 inches X-axis and 83.27 inches Z-axis, providing ample positioning range. The tool turret accommodates 12 tool positions for efficient multi-operation machining cycles. The 24-inch chuck size provides robust workholding for demanding applications. This configuration is ideal for production-run manufacturing of large-diameter components including shafts, sleeves, and structural parts requiring high precision and repeatability. The Mazatrol 640MT Pro control delivers advanced CNC functionality with macro programming capabilities, making it well-suited for complex multi-axis turning and milling integrated operations on mid-to-large scale industrial components.
