YIPC YLM-8A HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The YIPC YLM-8A is a CNC horizontal lathe equipped with a Fanuc 0i-TC controller, designed for precision turning operations. This machine features a single main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 14.960 inches and a maximum turning length of 15.350 inches, accommodating bar stock up to 2.040 inches in diameter. The 8-inch chuck provides secure workpiece holding, while the 18.110-inch maximum swing over bed allows for larger component handling. Operating at 4,500 RPM with 15 horsepower, the main spindle delivers consistent cutting performance for medium-duty applications. The machine utilizes a turret-style tool carrier capable of holding up to 12 turning tools, with one simultaneous cutting tool engaged during operation. The two-axis configuration (X and Z) provides 8.260 inches of X-axis travel and 16.530 inches of Z-axis travel, enabling versatile turning and facing operations. Rapid traverse rates of 1,180 inches per minute across all axes facilitate efficient non-cutting movements, while maximum feed rates of 50 inches per minute support controlled material removal. This compact horizontal lathe excels at bar feeding, chucking, and universal turning applications, making it suitable for production runs and job shop environments requiring reliable, repeatable precision turning capabilities.
