ROMI C 680 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The ROMI C 680 is a precision 2-axis CNC horizontal lathe engineered for versatile machining operations on medium to large workpieces. Featuring a maximum swing capacity of 26.8 inches over the bed and 16.9 inches over the cross slide, the machine accommodates workpieces up to 16.9 inches in diameter with a maximum turning length of 79.7 inches. The main spindle delivers 1,800 RPM with 40 HP of cutting power, supported by a 10-inch chuck and capable of accepting bar stock up to 3.5 inches in diameter. The machine utilizes a dual tool-carrying system: a primary gang tool carrier with four turning tools and a secondary 8-station automatic turret, both with auxiliary driven tool capability at 1,500 RPM for drilling, boring, and secondary operations. The X-axis provides 14.2 inches of cross-slide travel with rapid traverse rates of 315 inches per minute, while the Z-axis delivers full 79.7-inch longitudinal carriage travel at matching rapid rates. Equipped with Siemens Sinumerik 828D CNC control, the C 680 combines robust cast-iron construction with internal ribbing to minimize vibration during heavy-duty cutting operations. With single simultaneous cutting tool engagement, this configuration optimizes accuracy and tool life while delivering repeatable precision across diverse machining applications including bar work, chucking operations, and universal turning tasks.
