VICTOR 50280DCL CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a **50-inch swing** and a **280-inch machining length**, providing significant capacity for large workpieces. It is equipped with the **Fanuc 20-TA CNC control**, known for its robust and industry-standard performance. The Fanuc 20-TA control provides a 9-inch monochrome display with a 44-key keypad, supporting **2-axis (X and Z) digital readout**, and allows for precise manual and automatic turning operations. Key CNC functions include **Custom Macro B programming**, background editing during execution, **constant surface speed (CSS)** control, diameter/radius programming, and both absolute and incremental programming modes. The control supports **inch and metric units**, multiple coordinate systems (machine, absolute, and relative), and has stored program capacity for up to 63 part programs with 40 meters of paper tape capacity. It also offers 16 tool geometry and wear offsets with tool nose radius compensation, backlash and ballscrew pitch error compensation from laser calibration data, and full CNC control of coolant and work light functions via M-codes. The system features manual and automatic feed control with finely adjustable handwheel sensitivity, run verify using joystick or handwheel, and extensive diagnostics with error messages. Connectivity options include a built-in RS-232 port for data transfer. This equipment is ideal for high-precision, large-scale turning operations requiring reliable CNC automation and extensive tooling flexibility.
