PRECITEC SRI CHAKRA 400 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This 2-axis CNC lathe is engineered for precision turning operations, featuring a robust 13.78-inch chuck size and a maximum turning diameter of 23.62 inches, making it suitable for a wide range of cylindrical workpieces. The machine is powered by a 29.5 hp main motor, ensuring high torque and consistent performance during demanding machining tasks. Equipped with a tailstock, it provides additional support for long or slender parts, enhancing accuracy and rigidity during turning. The CNC control system is based on the FANUC OI platform, known for its reliability, user-friendly interface, and advanced programming capabilities, including support for ISO code and various diagnostic functions. The lathe operates on the X and Z axes, allowing for precise control over both diameter and length of the workpiece. The X-axis governs radial movement, adjusting the tool’s position relative to the workpiece center, while the Z-axis manages longitudinal movement along the workpiece length. This configuration is ideal for producing symmetrical and simple to moderately complex parts with high repeatability. The machine’s design emphasizes stability and accuracy, with hardened and ground guideways, precision ball screws, and a rigid bed construction. It supports a variety of tooling options and can be integrated with automation systems for increased productivity. The combination of high power, large chuck and turning capacity, and advanced CNC control makes this lathe a versatile solution for high-volume production and precision machining applications.
