STANDARD MODERN F-16TR/60 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a versatile mid-range turning machine designed for general-purpose machining applications. The machine features a 17-inch maximum swing capacity, enabling the machining of workpieces up to 17 inches in diameter over the bed. With an impressive 60-inch machining length, this lathe accommodates extended workpiece configurations, providing substantial capacity for both short and long components. The two-axis control system (X and Z axes) delivers precise positioning and repeatability across the cutting envelope, optimizing efficiency for longitudinal and radial operations. Powered by a robust 10-horsepower motor, the lathe delivers adequate cutting force for moderate to demanding applications across various materials including steel, aluminum, and composite materials. The spindle operates at a maximum speed of 2,500 RPM, balancing cutting velocity with torque availability for diverse tool and workpiece combinations. This speed range supports both heavy roughing operations at lower RPMs and precision finishing work at elevated speeds. The included tailstock provides essential support for longer workpieces, enhancing rigidity during turning and drilling operations while enabling through-hole machining capabilities. The CNC control system ensures automated operation with programmed tool paths, reducing operator intervention and improving consistency across production runs. This configuration makes the lathe suitable for prototype development, small-to-medium batch production, and job shop environments where flexibility and reliability are paramount. The combination of swing capacity, machining length, and spindle power establishes this machine as a capable solution for general metalworking and specialized turning requirements.
