WLJM CTK 4525 CNC LATHE

This is a compact CNC lathe designed for precision turning operations with moderate workpiece capacity. The machine features a maximum swing of 9.84 inches, allowing it to accommodate cylindrical workpieces up to approximately 4.92 inches in radius. With a machining length of 15.75 inches, it provides sufficient longitudinal travel for processing medium-length components, making it suitable for both production and prototyping applications. The two-axis configuration enables simultaneous X and Z-axis movement, supporting coordinated turning and facing operations with precise tool positioning and repeatability. Powered by a 7.37 hp motor, this lathe delivers adequate cutting force for machining various materials including aluminum, brass, and steel. The spindle reaches a maximum rotational speed of 4,500 RPM, providing versatility across different cutting speeds and surface finish requirements. The inclusion of a tailstock enhances workpiece stability during extended cutting operations, particularly for longer parts, and enables additional functionality such as drilling and reaming through the spindle. The CNC control system automates part programming and production sequences, eliminating manual operation and improving consistency. This integration of CNC automation with fundamental two-axis capability and integrated tailstock support makes the machine ideal for job shops, educational institutions, and small manufacturing facilities requiring reliable precision turning without requiring extensive floor space or three-axis complexity for standard cylindrical machining tasks.
