Technical Description
This CNC lathe features a 20-inch swing and a 75-inch machining length, designed for precision turning of large workpieces. It is equipped with the FAGOR 8055 TC control system, a robust and versatile CNC platform supporting up to 3 axes and offering advanced programming capabilities in both ISO and Fagor languages. The control includes a fully alphanumeric keyboard, USB and RS-232 serial ports for program transfer and communication, and supports background editing, conversational programming, and on-board graphic simulation for efficient workflow. The FAGOR 8055 TC provides a comprehensive range of canned cycles for turning, facing, taper turning, threading, and grooving, with user-defined cycle options and high-speed integrated PLC for enhanced automation. It supports manual and automatic tool calibration, tool inspection with auto-return, and mid-program start, allowing flexible operation and quick setup changes. The control offers override functions for feedrate and spindle speed, programmable spindle control, and multiple operating modes including execution, single block, MDI/Teach-In, jog/manual, and communications. The system features digital servo or analog drive compatibility, high-speed RS-232 communication at 115 K baud, and a wide input voltage range for reliable operation. With support for up to 999,999 main programs and 15 nesting levels, the FAGOR 8055 TC delivers extensive program management and editing in CNC language, high-level, profile, and interactive editors. The lathe’s combination of large capacity, advanced control, and versatile programming makes it suitable for high-precision production and complex machining tasks.
