OKUMA LB35III HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Okuma LB35III is a precision CNC horizontal turning center engineered for high-speed, high-power machining operations. Featuring a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 18.11 inches and chuck diameter of 15 inches, this machine accommodates bar stock up to 3.5 inches in diameter. The spindle delivers 50 horsepower at speeds up to 3,200 RPM, enabling rapid material removal and efficient production cycles. With a 12-position turret and optional rotary tooling capability (7.5 HP at 2,000 RPM), the LB35III supports versatile turning, drilling, and milling operations for multitasking functionality. The machine's two-axis configuration provides 9.65 inches of X-axis travel and 36.22 inches of Z-axis travel, with rapid traverse rates reaching 591 IPM across all axes for minimized non-cutting time. The swing over carriage measures 16.93 inches, while the swing over bed extends to 27.56 inches, accommodating larger workpieces. Equipped with an Okuma CNC control system and JIS A2-11 spindle nose, the LB35III delivers repeatable precision and reliability for production environments. The machine weighs approximately 20,000 pounds and occupies a floor footprint of 201 inches by 86 inches with integrated chip conveyor, making it suitable for oil industry applications and long-workpiece machining requiring exceptional torque and dimensional stability.
