PRIMERO PL-16 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a precision turning center equipped with a 5.9-inch chuck designed to securely hold and rotate workpieces during machining operations. The machine accommodates bar stock up to 1.77 inches in diameter, making it suitable for smaller to medium-sized production runs and prototyping applications. With a maximum spindle speed of 6,000 RPM, the lathe delivers efficient cutting performance across various materials, enabling faster production cycles for intricate designs. The maximum turning diameter of 11.02 inches allows the machine to produce parts with substantial radial dimensions, while the 17.72-inch swing over bed specification indicates the largest diameter workpiece that can rotate freely above the lathe bed without obstruction. The machining length capacity of 19.09 inches defines the longest workpiece that can be accommodated between the headstock spindle and tailstock center, providing versatility for extended turning operations. Computer Numerical Control (CNC) technology governs all machine movements and cutting operations through programmed instructions, ensuring precise repeatability and consistent part quality. This compact turning center is ideal for job shops, tool and die operations, and manufacturers requiring reliable precision turning capabilities with manageable footprint and power requirements for small to medium-scale production environments.
