SOMAB ALPHAMAB 340/4300 CNC LATHE

This is a 3-axis CNC lathe engineered for mid-to-large scale precision turning operations. With a maximum swing of 39.37 inches over the bed, the machine accommodates workpieces up to approximately 39 inches in diameter, making it suitable for substantial cylindrical components. The extended machining length of 169.29 inches enables the turning of lengthy shafts, pipes, and similar parts, providing considerable versatility for extended workpiece applications. Equipped with a 15.75-inch chuck, the lathe securely holds bar stock and shaped workpieces with reliable clamping force. The integrated tailstock enhances operational capability by providing support for long workpieces during drilling, boring, and turning operations, improving rigidity and precision. The 3-axis configuration—typically comprising X (cross-slide travel), Z (longitudinal travel), and C (rotational positioning) axes—permits standard milling operations, boring, and tapping in addition to conventional turning. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 2,000 RPM, this machine is optimized for heavier cutting operations and larger diameter workpieces where precision and torque are prioritized over speed. The CNC control system provides programmable automation, enabling consistent repeatability and complex part geometries without manual intervention. Standard features typically include rapid traverse functionality, coolant system, automatic lubrication, and a multi-station turret for efficient tool changing. This configuration represents an industrial-grade turning center suitable for production environments requiring reliable, accurate machining of substantial components with extended working lengths.
