NILES-SIMMONS N40 MC CNC LATHE

The CNC lathe features a substantial 32.28-inch swing capacity, enabling machining of larger workpieces compared to compact models. This swing dimension determines the maximum diameter of material that can be mounted and rotated on the machine, making it suitable for mid-to-heavy duty production runs. The integrated tailstock provides essential support for longer workpieces, enhancing rigidity and enabling through-spindle operations with improved accuracy and reduced deflection. This feature is particularly valuable for extended cutting lengths and complex turning operations that require balanced support from both ends of the workpiece. The machine is equipped with SIEMENS SINUMERIK 840D sl CNC control, an advanced industrial-grade control system renowned for precision, reliability, and flexibility in manufacturing environments. This controller delivers sophisticated programming capabilities, real-time diagnostics, and seamless integration with modern CAM systems. The SINUMERIK 840D sl enables multi-axis simultaneous machining, advanced interpolation, and adaptive control strategies to optimize cutting performance and tool life. Combined, these specifications position the lathe as a capable production machine suitable for demanding applications including aerospace components, medical devices, and precision engineering. The balance of swing capacity, tailstock support, and advanced CNC control facilitates high-precision turning, boring, threading, and facing operations with tight tolerances. The robust architecture supports both finishing and roughing passes, making it an economical choice for shops requiring versatility and reliability in mid-range production environments.
