Product Overview

 

A CNC lathe executes programmed instructions to rotate raw bar stock or billets against stationary cutting tools, generating symmetrical external and internal diameters, tapers, contours, and threads. The bed structure features heavily ribbed Meehanite cast iron, stress-relieved through thermal annealing to absorb high-frequency vibration during heavy roughing passes. Linear guide rails mounted on precision-ground surfaces deliver rapid traverse rates of 30 m/min on the X-axis and 36 m/min on the Z-axis, maintaining consistent positioning accuracy under continuous multi-shift production schedules.

Key Features

Rigid Spindle Cartridge

Supported by high-precision P4-grade angular contact ball bearings, handling radial and axial loads up to 4000 RPM with runout maintained below 0.002 mm.

Hydraulic Turret

Bi-directional indexing via a heavy-duty face gear coupling ensures high clamping rigidity and index times under 0.5 seconds for 12-station tool setups.

Direct-Drive Ball Screws

C3-grade precision ground ball screws coupled directly to AC servo motors via zero-backlash couplings, eliminating thermal elongation errors.

 

Integrated Chip Management

Slanted bed design at a 30 degree angle promotes gravity-fed chip evacuation into a rear-discharge conveyor, preventing thermal distortion from hot chip accumulation.

How to Choose
 
01/

Evaluate Component Envelope: Match the maximum swing over bed (> 500 mm) and maximum machining length (> 750 mm) against your largest production workpiece drawing.

02/

Determine Spindle Bore Requirements: Ensure the spindle through-hole diameter accommodates your maximum bar stock size (e.g., dia 65 mm or dia 82 mm) for automated bar feeder integration.

03/

Select Turret Configuration: Choose a standard 12-station turret for static turning tools, or specify live tooling (C-axis and driven tools) if off-center milling and cross-drilling operations are required in a single chucking.

04/

Verify Rigidity Needs: Opt for box-way construction over linear guide rails if your primary work involves continuous deep cuts in hard materials requiring maximum vibration damping.

FAQ

 

 

Q: What is the standard thermal stabilization time required before starting precision production runs?

A: Run the spindle at 50% max RPM for 15 minutes with coolant active to allow uniform thermal expansion across the headstock casting, stabilizing dimensions within a plus or minus 0.003 mm window.

Q: Can this lathe integrate with existing bar feeder systems without custom PLC rewriting?

A: Yes. The machine includes a standard SPI/Euromap 67 interface port and auxiliary M-codes, enabling plug-and-play connectivity with LNS, FMB, and Samchully bar feeders.

Q: What is the positioning repeatability variance across extended multi-shift operation?

A: Under stable ambient shop floor conditions (20 deg C plus or minus 2 deg C), axis repeatability is maintained within 0.002 mm (2 microns) per ISO 230-2 standards.

Q: How is backlash compensated on the X and Z axes over the machine lifecycle?

A: The Fanuc/Siemens controller utilizes bidirectional pitch error compensation tables mapped across 100-point intervals along the ball screws, automatically offsetting mechanical wear.

Q: What are the incoming electrical power requirements for the standard 11 kW spindle configuration?

A: The machine requires a 3-phase, 380V / 480V (plus or minus 10%), 50/60 Hz power supply with a dedicated ground wire and a minimum transformer capacity of 25 kVA.

Q: What documentation is delivered alongside the machine for QA and compliance audits?

A: Each unit ships with an individual Laser Calibration Test Report, Ballbar Test Certificate, Electrical Circuit Diagrams, Hydraulic Schematics, and the original CNC Controller Parameter Backup USB.
