TOOLMEX FCT700 X 122 CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This high-performance CNC lathe delivers robust machining capabilities with a 45 HP main spindle motor and a maximum spindle speed of 2,500 RPM, suitable for demanding turning operations on a wide range of materials. The machine features a generous swing of 27.6 inches and a machining length of 122 inches, accommodating large and long workpieces with ease. The 15-inch chuck size ensures secure holding of substantial parts, while the 4.1-inch bar capacity supports extended bar feeding for high-volume production. The maximum turning diameter is 19.3 inches, allowing for the precise machining of large cylindrical components. Equipped with a tailstock, the lathe provides additional support for longer workpieces, enhancing accuracy and rigidity during machining. Live tooling capability enables milling, drilling, and other secondary operations without requiring part repositioning, increasing versatility and efficiency. The absence of a sub-spindle limits simultaneous backworking operations, but the CNC control system—SIEMENS 840DSL—ensures advanced programming, precise axis control, and seamless integration into automated workflows. The machine’s substantial weight of 32,000 lbs contributes to exceptional stability and vibration damping, critical for maintaining tight tolerances and surface finish quality. Designed for heavy-duty industrial applications, this CNC lathe combines power, precision, and flexibility for high-productivity turning environments.
