PINACHO ST-225/1500 CNC LATHE

This is an 18-inch swing CNC lathe engineered for precision turning operations with substantial workpiece capacity. The machine features a maximum swing diameter of 18 inches, enabling the machining of parts up to 9 inches in radius clearance above the bed ways. With a 60-inch machining length, the lathe accommodates longer workpieces, extending from the headstock spindle to the tailstock center, making it suitable for extended turning operations and complex part geometries. Equipped with a 2-axis CNC control system, the machine provides simultaneous X and Z-axis movement for coordinated threading, contouring, and facing operations. The spindle delivers 20 horsepower at speeds ranging up to 3,000 RPM, offering adequate cutting power and rotational velocity for both roughing and finishing operations across various materials including steel, aluminum, and cast iron. This power specification ensures consistent performance during heavy-duty machining while maintaining dimensional accuracy. The integrated tailstock provides essential support for longer workpieces during turning and drilling operations, reducing deflection and improving surface finish quality. The CNC control system enables programmable tool paths, repeatable accuracy, and reduced setup time compared to manual lathes. This specification makes the machine ideal for production runs, prototyping, and job shop applications requiring versatility. The combination of moderate swing, extended bed length, adequate horsepower, and CNC automation creates a well-balanced toolroom lathe suitable for small-to-medium manufacturing operations, capable of handling diverse workpiece configurations while maintaining tight tolerances and consistent part quality.
