SMTCL CW61200 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SMTCL CW61200 manual lathe is a heavy-duty horizontal lathe designed for turning large and heavy workpieces with precision. It features a maximum swing over the bed of 78.74 inches (2000 mm) and a swing over the cross slide of 62.20 inches (1600 mm), accommodating substantial diameters for diverse machining operations. The spindle bore diameter is 5.12 inches (130 mm), enabling the machining of thick-walled cylindrical parts and allowing long workpieces to pass through the spindle for extended turning applications. The lathe is powered by a robust 29.64 hp (22 kW) motor that ensures reliable and consistent cutting power. The machine supports a maximum workpiece length customized up to 20,000 mm (20 meters) and can handle heavy loads, supporting workpieces up to 16 tons when fitted with the standard 1100 mm wide bed. The headstock design incorporates symmetrical structure to reduce thermal deformation and maintain spindle accuracy during prolonged operation. Precision ground and quenched gears and guideways enhance rigidity and accuracy. The lathe includes various threading capabilities (metric, inch, module, diametral pitch) and supports a wide range of spindle speeds ranging from 2 to 200 rpm forward and reverse for flexible machining. Additional features include a tailstock with a 300 mm travel and MT6 taper, a 4-jaw chuck up to 1400 mm diameter, and rapid tool rest movement speeds exceeding 3000 mm/min for efficient positioning. The CW61200 is engineered for demanding metal cutting operations such as turning cylindrical, conical, and threaded parts in heavy manufacturing contexts.
