SMTCL CAK4085A CNC LATHE

Technical Description

The 2-axis CNC lathe represents an economical and efficient turning solution ideal for small to medium-sized components and symmetrical part production. Operating on the fundamental X and Z linear axes, this machine controls workpiece diameter through X-axis movement and length through Z-axis longitudinal travel. With a 10 hp motor providing adequate power for precision cutting operations, the lathe delivers a maximum spindle speed of 2,500 RPM, suitable for both finishing and roughing applications across various material types. The 15.75-inch swing diameter and matching turning diameter accommodate parts requiring moderate rotational capacity, while the generous 35.04-inch machining length enables production of elongated components without repositioning. The included tailstock provides essential support for extended workpieces, enhancing rigidity and reducing deflection during machining operations. The CNC control system automates tool path execution, ensuring repeatable accuracy and consistent part quality across production runs. This configuration is particularly well-suited for applications in hardware processing, automotive component manufacturing, and general-purpose turning operations where precision and reliability are paramount. The combination of adequate spindle power, respectable speed capability, and functional work envelope makes this 2-axis lathe a versatile choice for job shops and small manufacturing facilities seeking dependable performance without the complexity and expense of multi-axis systems.
