VICTOR 45120DCL CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a maximum swing of 44.7 inches and a machining length of 120 inches, making it suitable for large-diameter and long-part turning operations. The machine is equipped with a Fanuc 20-TA CNC control system, providing advanced automation and precision. The Fanuc 20-TA control offers a 9-inch monitor, 2-axis readout and interpolation, and supports up to 63 part programs with 16 tool geometry offsets and 16 tool wear offsets, including tool nose radius compensation. The control supports both diameter and radius programming, as well as absolute and incremental modes, with inch/metric input and display options. It features six CNC operation modes—MEM, EDIT, MDI, Mchn Gdnce, Man/Hndwl, and Ref Return—along with five auxiliary modes for enhanced operational flexibility. The system includes conversational graphics programming, constant surface speed (CSS) control, and triple electronic handwheels for simultaneous manual and automatic turning. The handwheel sensitivity can be adjusted to 0.0001”, 0.001”, or 0.01” for precise control. The CNC supports background editing of G-code during program execution (optional), and includes full M-code control of coolant, work light, and power contactors for accessories. The control system also features backlash error compensation, ballscrew pitch error compensation using laser calibration data, and built-in RS-232 for program transfer. Self-diagnostic functions provide on-screen error messages for quick troubleshooting. The Fanuc 20-TA control ensures reliable, high-precision machining for demanding industrial applications.
