MILLTRONICS ML-45 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This industrial lathe is engineered for heavy-duty turning applications, featuring a robust construction with a 29,500 lb weight for exceptional stability and vibration damping. The machine offers a bar capacity of 4 inches, supporting continuous bar feeding for unattended operation, and a 21-inch chuck size for secure workholding of large or irregular components. Maximum turning length reaches 5 feet, accommodating extended workpieces, while the maximum turning diameter is 45 inches, enabling the machining of large-diameter parts. The swing over bed is 39.7 inches, allowing for substantial workpiece diameters above the bed, and the swing over gap extends to 50 inches, providing additional clearance for oversized or flanged workpieces when the bed is gapped. The spindle delivers a maximum speed of 580 rpm, balancing high torque and rotational capability for efficient material removal across a range of metals and alloys. The lathe’s rigid bed and heavy-duty spindle bearings ensure minimal deflection and chatter during deep cuts or hard material machining, contributing to superior surface finish and tool life. Designed for high-capacity production environments, the machine supports a variety of workholding and tooling options, making it suitable for complex turning, facing, threading, and boring operations. Controls are integrated for precise operation, though the specific make and model are not provided. This lathe is ideal for demanding industrial applications requiring large work envelopes, high rigidity, and reliable performance.
