SMART MACHINE TOOL SL 5500 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a **39.37-inch swing** and **78.74-inch machining length**, providing substantial capacity for medium to large workpieces. It operates on a **2-axis system (X and Z axes)**, suitable for basic turning operations with precise control over diameter and length dimensions. The machine accommodates a **24-inch chuck size** and supports a **bar capacity of 6 inches**, enabling secure clamping and effective machining of substantial bar stock. Its **60 HP power** spindle delivers robust cutting performance, sustaining up to a **maximum speed of 1,000 RPM**, which balances torque and speed for heavy-duty turning. The maximum turning diameter is **31.52 inches**, making it capable of handling relatively large diameter parts. Control is fully **CNC-based**, allowing automated toolpaths and consistent repeatability for efficient and accurate machining. This configuration is well-suited for a range of industrial turning applications, combining sufficient power and size for moderate to large production parts with reliable CNC precision and automation.
