SOUTHWESTERN INDUSTRIES TRAK TRL 1540V CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features an 8-inch chuck size and a 2.125-inch bar capacity, making it well-suited for a wide range of cylindrical workpieces. With a 2-axis configuration, the machine provides precise control over diameter (X-axis) and length (Z-axis), ideal for symmetrical turning operations. The lathe is powered by a robust 10 HP motor, enabling efficient material removal and consistent performance across various metals and alloys. It achieves a maximum spindle speed of 4,000 RPM, supporting high-speed machining for improved productivity and surface finish. The maximum turning diameter is 6.625 inches, while the swing of 15 inches allows for larger diameter parts to be accommodated. The machining length extends up to 40 inches, providing ample capacity for longer components. The inclusion of a tailstock enhances workpiece support and rigidity during extended turning operations. The lathe’s overall dimensions are 90 inches in length, 55 inches in width, and 73 inches in height, with a total weight of 4,650 lbs, ensuring stability and vibration resistance during heavy-duty use. Control is managed via the Prototrak VL CNC system, offering intuitive programming, high repeatability, and accurate part production. This machine is designed for precision, versatility, and reliability in demanding manufacturing environments, making it suitable for both prototyping and production runs.
