MAZAK M5 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC turning center features a robust X-axis travel of 21.25" and a Z-axis travel of 102", allowing a maximum turning or cutting length up to 102" with a maximum cutting diameter of 13". It supports a maximum swing over the bed of 24", enabling machining of relatively large workpieces. The machine accommodates bars up to 4.00" in diameter and utilizes a hydraulic 16" chuck with a 4.00" spindle bore, providing secure and versatile gripping. The spindle operates at speeds up to 2,000 RPM powered by a 30 HP motor, with an A2-11 spindle nose configuration and a single spindle setup. Rapid traverse rates reach 394 inches per minute (IPM) for efficient non-cutting movement. Tooling capacity includes an 8-position turret plus a second turret with 6 positions for multi-tool operation, enhancing process flexibility. The integrated Mazatrol T-2 CNC control system supports conversational programming and advanced machining operations. Additionally, the machine is equipped with a tailstock for extended workpiece support and a chip conveyor for automated chip removal, promoting operational efficiency and clean working conditions. This combination of travel capacities, spindle power, tooling versatility, and control sophistication makes the unit suitable for precision turning applications requiring moderate to large part sizes and functional multitasking.
