SUNFIRM CST-42160 CNC LATHE

This CNC lathe features a 31-inch chuck and a 10-inch bar capacity, supporting machining of parts with a maximum swing of 42 inches and a machining length up to 160 inches. It operates with 2 axes (X and Z), providing 26 inches of X-axis travel and 169 inches of Z-axis travel, allowing precise linear tool movement for diameter and length machining. Equipped with a 30 hp power spindle and a 35 hp main motor, the spindle nose is an A2-15 type rotating at speeds up to 420 rpm, suitable for heavy-duty turning tasks. Rapid traverse rates are 393 ipm on the X-axis and 315 ipm on the Z-axis, enhancing productivity through swift tool positioning. CNC control is provided by a Fanuc 0i-TC system, ensuring high-precision automated machining with repeatability. The turret holds 8 tools but lacks live tooling and a Y axis, indicating the machine is geared toward straightforward turning rather than milling or complex multi-axis operations. It includes a tailstock for additional workpiece support, beneficial for long or tapered parts. The overall machine footprint is substantial at 277 by 106 by 90 inches, reflecting its heavy industrial application. This lathe is ideal for large and medium-sized cylindrical parts where high torque and long travel lengths are critical, offering robust, reliable performance in precision turning operations.
