VICTOR 60120DCL CNC LATHE

Technical Description

This CNC lathe features a 60-inch swing and a 120-inch machining length, making it suitable for large-scale turning operations. It is equipped with a Fanuc 20-TA control system, a reliable and widely used CNC platform known for its robust performance in industrial environments. The Fanuc 20-TA provides a 9-inch monochrome monitor and a 44-key keypad for intuitive operation, supporting both diameter and radius programming as well as absolute and incremental modes. The control offers standard features such as constant surface speed (CSS) for both manual and automatic operations, triple electronic handwheels for simultaneous manual and automatic turning, and a multiplier switch for precise handwheel sensitivity adjustment (0.0001”, 0.001”, and 0.01”). The system supports inch and metric input and display, and includes full CNC control of coolant and work light functions via M-codes. It also provides backlash error compensation and ballscrew pitch error compensation using laser calibration data, ensuring high accuracy over extended use. The Fanuc 20-TA supports up to 63 part program storage and includes a built-in RS-232 port for easy loading and unloading of part programs and CNC data. The control offers multiple operation modes including MEM, EDIT, MDI, Manual/HANDWHEEL, and Reference Return, as well as auxiliary modes such as Dry Run, Single Block, and Optional Block Skip. Manual interrupt functions allow for handwheel and spindle interruption during automatic operations. The system also features conversational graphics programming, easy one-touch X-Z part coordinate system setting, and self-diagnostics with on-screen error messages. With its comprehensive feature set and proven reliability, this lathe is well-suited for demanding production environments.
