OKUMA LB45III/C3000 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC turning center features an X-axis travel of 17.32" and a Z-axis travel of 120.47", allowing for a maximum distance between centers of 120". It accommodates a maximum swing over bed of 35.43" and supports a maximum turning or cutting length of 118.11" with a maximum cutting or turning diameter of 21.65". The machine includes a 19.0" chuck size and a spindle bore diameter of 10.10". Its spindle operates at speeds up to 1,000 RPM powered by a 60 HP motor, supporting high-torque machining tasks. The turret holds 12 tool positions, enabling versatile tool changes for complex operations. It is equipped with the Okuma OSP-P300L CNC control system, a Windows-based open-architecture platform known for its high-speed multi-core processing, advanced motion control algorithms, and intuitive graphical user interface. This control provides comprehensive, centralized data management from a single screen, simplifying setup, programming, and tool preparation. Features include closed-loop feedback for precise positioning, thermal compensation, vibration dampening, and flexible programming with support for multi-axis control. The system supports efficient tool registration and automatic tool changer operations, alongside user-friendly tool offset adjustments and collision avoidance to enhance machining reliability and precision. Ethernet and multiple USB ports ensure connectivity, while the control’s embedded virus scanning bolsters system security. Overall, this configuration is suitable for medium-to-large workpieces requiring high precision and productivity in turning and cutting applications.
