OKUMA LU45-2 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

The Okuma OSP 7000L CNC lathe is a precision turning center equipped with a 24-inch chuck designed for heavy-duty production work. With a maximum spindle speed of 3,200 RPM, this machine delivers reliable performance across diverse machining applications. The 29.13-inch swing capacity allows operators to work with larger diameter workpieces, while the 78.74-inch machining length provides substantial capacity for extended component production. The machine is controlled by Okuma's OSP 7000L numerical control system, a high-performance CNC platform featuring an intuitive operator interface with CRT display technology. The OSP 7000L control integrates advanced functionality including automatic programming capabilities, simultaneous multi-axis control, and sophisticated tool nose radius compensation. The control system utilizes a common NC operation panel across all Okuma machine tools, ensuring consistency and ease of operator familiarity. The 7000L architecture provides improved system extensibility and versatility, incorporating functions derived from proven OSP 5000L series controllers. The machine's robust chuck design with selectable clamping pressure options delivers precise workpiece gripping, while optional tailstock spindle control enhances production flexibility. This lathe configuration makes it ideal for precision turning operations requiring consistent quality and extended production runs. The combination of substantial swing capacity, extended machining length, and advanced CNC controls positions this machine as a versatile solution for job shop and production environments handling mid-range to larger diameter components with demanding tolerances.
