PANTHER PFC 8030 CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe features a substantial 31.5-inch swing capacity, enabling machining of large-diameter workpieces with a maximum machining length of 118.11 inches, making it well-suited for extended turning operations and complex part geometries. The machine is equipped with a tailstock for enhanced workpiece support during extended cutting sequences, providing stability for longer components. Powered by a robust 20.1 hp motor, the lathe delivers substantial cutting force across its operational range, with a maximum spindle speed of 800 RPM optimized for heavy-duty material removal and precision turning applications. The 2-axis CNC control system provides automated positioning and repeatability for consistent part production, allowing for programmable tool paths and coordinated X and Z-axis movements. Measuring 216.54 inches in length, 92.91 inches in width, and 72.83 inches in height, this machine commands significant floor space and weighs 14,991.32 lbs, requiring proper foundation and installation infrastructure. The combination of high swing capacity, extended machining length, and powerful spindle drive makes this lathe suitable for production environments requiring machining of large, heavy components in materials ranging from steel to cast iron, with the 800 RPM maximum speed indicating an emphasis on torque and material removal rate over high-speed finishing operations.
