MAZAK POWER MASTER N CHUCKER CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 2-axis CNC lathe represents a robust turning center engineered for mid-to-heavy duty precision machining applications. Featuring a maximum bar capacity of 4.5 inches, the machine accommodates standard bar stock while maintaining compact footprint efficiency. The dual-axis configuration—with X-axis controlling radial diameter positioning and Z-axis managing longitudinal tool travel—enables fundamental turning operations on symmetrical components. The 39.4-inch maximum turning diameter paired with a 34-inch swing clearance permits machining of large cylindrical workpieces without interference from guarding or machine components. The 63-inch machining length specification indicates the maximum longitudinal workpiece dimensions achievable within the machine's mechanical axis travel limitations. The 60-horsepower spindle motor delivers substantial cutting force essential for heavy stock removal operations, such as casting and forging work, drilling large-diameter holes, and aggressive feature turning on large-diameter parts. Operating at a maximum of 1,200 RPM, the spindle prioritizes torque over speed, making it well-suited for applications demanding high cutting forces rather than rapid spindle rotation. The CNC control system utilizes computer numerical control to program precise tool paths, eliminating manual operation and ensuring repeatability to tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches across production runs. The absence of a tailstock limits the machine's capacity for supporting extended workpieces but may streamline chuck operations and loading cycles. This configuration delivers reliable, high-precision turning capabilities for moderate to complex geometries in production environments.
