NEXTURN LP-18 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The NEXTURN LP-18 Horizontal Machining Center is a CNC turning center designed for precision machining with a maximum main spindle turning diameter of 0.710" and a turning length of up to 6.230". It features a single main spindle operating at up to 10,000 RPM with 4.90 HP power and a sub spindle capable of 8,000 RPM and 1.46 HP, both with 0.710" bar diameter capacity. The machine supports a primary slide-type tool carrier with a maximum of 10 turning tools and 8 rotary tools, facilitating diverse machining operations with a maximum rotary tool speed of 6,000 RPM at 0.66 HP. The LP-18 offers simultaneous cutting with one tool and includes a comprehensive secondary mill/drill functionality supporting on-center, off-center, and interpolation with 'C' and 'Y' axes. It operates on a 3-axis configuration (X, Y, Z) with travel of 6.300" on the Z-axis. The feed and rapid traverse rates in all axes reach 590 inches per minute, enabling high-speed, efficient machining. This combination of turning and milling capabilities, along with high spindle speeds and versatile tooling options, makes the NEXTURN LP-18 suitable for complex, high-precision component production in industries requiring Swiss-type lathe accuracy and horizontal machining center flexibility.
