STAR SV-38 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This advanced CNC lathe features a 1.5-inch spindle hole diameter, enabling the machining of large-diameter bar stock with high rigidity and precision. Powered by a robust 14.75 HP spindle motor, the machine delivers exceptional torque and cutting performance, supporting demanding turning operations on a wide range of materials. The spindle is capable of speeds up to 7,000 RPM, ensuring efficient material removal and fine surface finishes for both roughing and finishing tasks. With a 12-axis configuration, the lathe provides extensive multi-tasking capability, allowing for complex part geometries and simultaneous machining operations. The turret is equipped with two OD turning holders (double holders in Y), one ID Z-axis live tool (double holder in X), and one triple ID boring holder, supporting a broad spectrum of external and internal turning, drilling, and milling operations. Backworking functionality is enhanced with one static tool holder and two live tool holders in Z, enabling secondary operations such as drilling, tapping, and milling on the back end of the workpiece. The machine is controlled by the Fanuc 31i-B5 CNC controller, renowned for its reliability, advanced programming features, and seamless integration with modern manufacturing workflows. This combination of high power, multi-axis flexibility, comprehensive tooling options, and industry-leading controls makes the lathe ideal for high-precision, high-efficiency production of complex components in aerospace, automotive, and medical industries.
