POLY TOP WF50DT CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a swing of 16.14 inches and a machining length of 13.78 inches, providing ample capacity for a wide range of turning operations. The machine is equipped with a 5.12-inch chuck and supports a bar capacity of 1.65 inches, making it suitable for both chucking and bar work. With a spindle power of 7.37 hp and a maximum spindle speed of 4,000 RPM, the lathe delivers high performance for efficient material removal and precision machining. The turning diameter is 6.69 inches, allowing for the production of medium-sized components with accuracy. The machine is controlled by the FANUC 21i CNC system, a reliable and advanced control platform known for its ease of use, robust programming capabilities, and integration with modern manufacturing workflows. The FANUC 21i control offers features such as AI nano contour control, look-ahead linear and bell-shaped acceleration/deceleration, automatic corner deceleration, feedrate clamping based on acceleration and arc radius, jerk control, and advanced preview feed forward. These functions ensure smooth motion control, high surface quality, and improved cycle times. The control system also supports comprehensive diagnostics, tool compensation, and flexible I/O configuration for seamless integration into automated environments. Safety features include coordinate system validation, constant surface speed control with maximum speed limits, and protection against excessive rotation axis speeds. This lathe is ideal for shops requiring precision, reliability, and versatility in turning applications.
