SHANGHAI SIGMA SC-30G CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 15.35-inch swing and a 9.84-inch machining length, optimized for medium-sized turning operations. It operates with a 2-axis configuration (X and Z axes), facilitating basic turning processes with precise control. Powered by a 5.36 hp motor, the spindle reaches a maximum speed of 5,000 RPM, enabling efficient material removal and surface finishing. The maximum turning diameter achievable is 5.12 inches, suitable for small to moderate diameter workpieces. The machine is controlled by a CNC system using the GSK980TD controller, which enables automated, programmable precision machining with consistent repeatability and minimal manual intervention. This setup supports reliable, high-accuracy production runs suitable for various industrial applications requiring moderate spindle speed and power. The 2-axis control allows for standard turning tasks without milling or live tooling, making it a practical solution for external cylindrical and face turning operations with controlled cutting depth. The machine’s compactness and specification indicate a balance between power and size, ideal for precision turning of components with diameters up to just over 5 inches and lengths under 10 inches, emphasizing accuracy and efficiency in machining small parts. The use of the GSK980TD controller provides user-friendly CNC programming and operation to ensure tight tolerances and surface finishes in typical manufacturing environments.
