VICTOR 45200DCL CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 44.7-inch swing capacity and a machining length of 200 inches, enabling the machining of large-diameter and long workpieces with high precision. It is controlled by a Fanuc 20-TA CNC system, an industry-standard controller well-suited for turning operations with two-axis (X and Z) control. The Fanuc 20-TA includes a 9-inch monochrome display and a 44-key keypad, supporting various operation modes such as MEM, EDIT, MDI, and manual handwheel, allowing flexible programming and execution of complex machining tasks. It supports both absolute and incremental programming in inch or metric units, with features like Constant Surface Speed (CSS), conversational graphics programming, and diameter/radius programming for precise contour machining. The system also provides custom Macro B programming capability and background editing during run to optimize productivity. Additional functionalities include backlash compensation, ballscrew pitch error compensation using laser calibration data, tool geometry and wear offset management, and multiple coordinate systems (machine, absolute, relative). The control system offers robust CNC functions such as full M-code control of coolant and work light, program storage for up to 63 part programs, and built-in RS-232 communication for program loading/unloading. Manual and automatic operation modes are enhanced by triple electronic handwheels with adjustable sensitivity, CNC run verification via joystick or handwheel, and self-diagnostics with error messaging for efficient troubleshooting. This combination of a large swing and long machining length paired with the Fanuc 20-TA CNC controller makes this machine ideal for high-precision, heavy-duty turning applications in aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors.
