SMEC SL2000 CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe features an X-axis travel of 8.26 inches and a Z-axis travel of 22.04 inches, supporting precise linear motion essential for accurate turning operations. It offers a maximum swing over bed of 22.44 inches and a maximum turning or cutting length of 21.25 inches, allowing it to handle moderately sized workpieces. The maximum cutting or turning diameter is 14.17 inches, optimized for a range of cylindrical components. Rapid traverse rates are 944 IPM on the X-axis and 1181 IPM on the Z-axis, enabling fast, efficient tool positioning. The machine accommodates bar stock up to 2.67 inches in diameter and includes an 8.0-inch chuck for robust workpiece holding. Its spindle is powered by a 25 HP motor, capable of speeds up to 4500 RPM, with a standard A2-6 spindle nose for compatibility with various tooling. The turret supports 12 tool positions, facilitating quick tool changes and multi-operation capabilities without manual intervention. Equipped with a Fanuc Oi-TF CNC control system, the lathe ensures advanced programmability, precise axis control, and high repeatability required for complex and consistent machining tasks. A tailstock is included, providing additional workpiece support for longer or slender parts during turning. Overall, this machine combines substantial power, travel range, and tooling flexibility to deliver efficient and precise turning operations suitable for medium-complexity parts manufacturing.
