MAZAK QUICK TURN NEXUS 300-II M-650U CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 10-inch chuck CNC lathe represents a mid-range production machine engineered for precision turning operations on cylindrical workpieces. The machine accommodates bar stock up to 3 inches in diameter, making it suitable for medium-sized components. With a maximum turning diameter of 16.54 inches and swing capacity of 29.5 inches, the lathe can handle relatively large workpieces while maintaining clearance with machine guarding and cross-slide mechanisms. The 26.15-inch machining length provides adequate capacity for extended parts without frequent repositioning. The 35 horsepower spindle motor delivers sufficient torque for aggressive cutting operations on castings, forgings, and steel applications, while the 4,000 RPM maximum spindle speed offers flexibility across various material types and tool geometries. The included tailstock provides critical support for longer workpieces during machining, reducing deflection and improving surface finish quality. Control is managed by the MAZATROL MATRIX NEXUS 2 CNC system, a sophisticated computer numerical control platform that automates tool positioning along multiple axes. This system replaces manual handwheel operation, utilizing stepper motors or servo drives to execute precise tool paths with repeatability tolerances as tight as ±0.0005 inches. The control system enables complex operations including turning, threading, facing, and drilling in a single setup, eliminating repositioning requirements and reducing production cycles for multi-featured components.
