TELFORD CNC LATHE FCL-160 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe is a precision turning center designed for small to medium-sized manufacturing operations. It features a 17.72-inch swing over bed and a maximum machining length of 15.75 inches, making it suitable for producing parts with moderate dimensional requirements. The machine is equipped with a 6-inch chuck and can accommodate bar stock up to 1.77 inches in diameter, ideal for automatic bar feeding applications. With a maximum turning diameter of 7.87 inches, this lathe handles compact workpieces requiring precision finishing and turning operations. The spindle is powered by a robust 14.75 hp motor, delivering adequate torque for consistent cutting performance across various materials. Operating at speeds up to 4,500 RPM, the spindle provides sufficient velocity for efficient material removal and fine surface finish work. The machine utilizes advanced CNC control systems with multiple options including Siemens, Mitsubishi, Fanuc, SYNTEC, or GSK controllers, enabling flexible programming and seamless integration with modern manufacturing environments. This lathe is engineered for versatility in producing symmetrical and simple turned components, with the precision and repeatability inherent to CNC automation. The combination of moderate swing, reasonable bar capacity, and adequate horsepower makes it well-suited for job shops, contract manufacturers, and production facilities handling precision parts in the small-to-medium range. The multiple control system options allow operators to select the platform that best integrates with their existing manufacturing infrastructure and operator expertise.
