SMEC SL 2000AM CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe features a **22.44-inch swing**, enabling machining of parts up to 14.17 inches in diameter with a **6-inch chuck size** for secure workholding. It supports a **bar capacity of 2.05 inches**, accommodating medium-sized stock during turning operations. The machine operates on **3 axes** (X, Z, and C or an equivalent rotary axis) providing multi-dimensional control for complex machining tasks. The inclusion of a **tailstock** enhances support for longer workpieces, improving stability and precision during turning. The lathe is equipped with a **Fanuc Oi-TF CNC control system**, allowing for automated and precise program execution, toolpath control, and high repeatability. Weighing **8,157 lbs**, the robust construction ensures vibration damping and stability under heavy cutting forces. This setup is well-suited for precision turning applications requiring moderate-to-large capacity, with CNC control enabling intricate part geometries and consistent high-quality output. The 3-axis design supports standard turning and some angular or contour machining capabilities, while the tailstock adds versatility for longer or slender parts. Overall, this machine balances capability and capacity for efficient CNC turning with reliable control and structural integrity.
