SMEC SL 1500 CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe features a 22.44-inch swing and a 6-inch chuck size, allowing for the machining of moderately sized workpieces. It operates with 2 axes (X and Z), providing precise control in diameter and length for turning operations. The bar capacity is 2.05 inches, suitable for handling medium-diameter bar stock. It supports a maximum turning diameter of 14.17 inches, enabling the machining of parts up to that size radially. The lathe includes a tailstock for additional support of longer workpieces during turning. Control is managed by a Fanuc Oi-TF CNC system, known for reliability and ease of programming in precision machining. The machine occupies a floor space of 146.2 by 64.3 inches and weighs 8,157 pounds, reflecting a robust and stable construction ideal for maintaining accuracy and reducing vibration during machining. This configuration is well-suited for a variety of turning applications requiring consistent precision on medium-sized components.
