SMART MACHINE TOOL NL 2000 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 22.4-inch swing and a maximum machining length of 22.0 inches, accommodating medium to large workpieces with high precision. Designed as a 2-axis machine, it operates along the X and Z axes, making it ideal for straightforward turning operations and symmetrical parts. The lathe is equipped with an 8.0-inch chuck, allowing secure clamping of workpieces up to that diameter, and supports bar stock up to 2.68 inches in diameter for continuous machining. With a robust 20.0 HP motor and a maximum spindle speed of 4,500 RPM, the machine delivers strong performance for a variety of materials and turning applications. The maximum turning diameter is 15.4 inches, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of part sizes. The inclusion of a tailstock provides additional support for longer workpieces, enhancing stability and accuracy during machining. Live tooling and a sub-spindle are not available, focusing the machine’s capabilities on traditional turning rather than milling or secondary operations. The controls make and model are unspecified, but the machine is expected to feature standard CNC control for automated operation, programming, and repeatability. This lathe is well-suited for shops requiring reliable, high-precision turning of cylindrical components, offering a balance of power, size, and simplicity for general manufacturing tasks.
