VICTOR 35320DCL CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 34.6-inch swing capacity and a substantial machining length of 320 inches, enabling the handling of large-diameter, long workpieces with ease. It is controlled by the Fanuc 20-TA CNC system, known for its robust and reliable performance in industrial machining environments. The Fanuc 20-TA offers a 9-inch monochrome monitor coupled with a 44-key keypad interface, supporting 2-axis (X and Z) digital readout for precise turning operations. It supports multiple CNC operation modes including Memory, Edit, Manual Data Input (MDI), and Manual Handwheel, allowing flexibility in programming and manual intervention. Advanced features include Custom Macro B programming for G-code customization, background editing during program execution, constant surface speed (CSS) control, and backlash error compensation for improved surface finish and machining accuracy. The control accommodates inch/metric inputs, diameter/radius programming, and includes full CNC control of coolant and lighting via M-codes. It supports 16 tool geometry and wear offsets with tool nose radius compensation to maintain high precision in tool positioning. Additional functionality includes program storage for 63 part programs and RS-232 communication port for data transfer. Manual and automatic operations are enhanced by triple electronic handwheels with adjustable sensitivity, and run verify capability through joystick or handwheel. The system also provides self-diagnostics with clear error messages for efficient troubleshooting. Overall, this lathe setup is optimized for high-precision, large-scale turning applications with modern CNC versatility and control sophistication.
