The CNC lathe for metal turning is configured at quotation: controller, bed length, chuck type and turret options are selected according to the range of parts produced. Free technical consultancy available. Advantages of the CNC lathe for metal turning
• ±0.015mm accuracy and ±0.006mm repeatability: consistent quality in series production. The CNC lathe for metal turning achieves a positioning accuracy of ±0.015mm and a repeatability of ±0.006mm, parameters that place it in the medium-to-high precision CNC lathe category. This repeatability guarantees that the CNC lathe for metal turning produces identical parts in series: a critical condition for gear components, shafts and precision bushings where tight tolerances are imposed by assembly standards.
• Selectable controller: GSK, FANUC, Siemens or KND. The CNC lathe for metal turning is available with four control systems: GSK (a high-performance controller with optional Romanian-language interface), FANUC (the industry standard for series production), Siemens (preferred in complex integrations and automated production lines) and KND (an economical option for workshops with standard G-code programming). The ability to choose the controller makes the CNC lathe for metal turning a solution compatible with the existing CNC infrastructure in the workshop, with no need to fully retrain operators.
• Z axis with direct connection: elimination of transmission backlash. The Z axis of the CNC lathe for metal turning is connected directly to the servo motor, with no intermediate belt or gears. This construction eliminates the transmission backlash accumulated in indirect-drive systems and ensures superior accuracy and repeatability along the longitudinal direction, critical for thread-cutting, taper and profile turning operations where the cumulative error along the Z axis determines the final quality of the part.
“This repeatability guarantees that the CNC metal turning lathe produces identical parts in series.”
• Turning diameter 800mm over the bed / 540mm over the slide: wide dimensional coverage. The CNC lathe for metal turning machines parts up to 800mm in diameter over the bed and 540mm over the slide, covering the range from small precision parts to medium-sized discs, flanges and rotors. The three bore configurations (φ52 / φ80 / φ105mm) of the CNC lathe for metal turning allow large-diameter bars to pass through axially without the limitations of a standard-spindle lathe.
• Five length variants: 750 to 3000mm. The CNC lathe for metal turning is available with the bed in five working lengths: 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000mm. This range covers everything from turning short high-precision parts (shafts, bushings, pistons) to machining long shafts for the power, marine and heavy machinery industries. The bed length of the CNC lathe for metal turning is selected at quotation according to the maximum range of parts machined.
• Main spindle speed 21–1600rpm with 3 mechanical steps: adaptable to diverse materials and operations. The CNC lathe for metal turning combines continuous speed variation with a 3-step mechanical gearbox (I: 162–1600 rpm / II: 66–500 rpm / III: 21–150 rpm), covering the entire range of operations, from high-speed finishing on aluminium and non-ferrous alloys to low-speed roughing on alloy steels and cast iron with high torque. The high torque of the main spindle at low speeds allows the CNC lathe for metal turning to perform aggressive roughing without loss of stability or vibration.
• 4-position vertical electric turret + optional 6 positions: increased productivity through fewer tool changes. The 4-position vertical electric turret of the CNC lathe for metal turning allows rapid automatic indexing of the next tool in the program, eliminating manual tool-change time. The optional 6-position turret available for the CNC lathe for metal turning is recommended for complex-profile parts that require several finishing, chamfering and truing tools in the same cycle.
• Optional hydraulic chucks: maximum productivity in series. The CNC lathe for metal turning is available with a solid or tubular hydraulic chuck in place of the standard manual chuck. The hydraulic chuck reduces clamping/unclamping time per part from 15–30 seconds to under 3 seconds, with a uniform, repeatable clamping force that eliminates manual clamping errors. In series production with the CNC lathe for metal turning, the hydraulic chuck significantly reduces the total cycle time per part.
Operations performed on the CNC lathe for metal turning
The CNC lathe for metal turning performs the entire range of CNC turning operations: external and internal turning of cylindrical surfaces, programmable taper turning, machining of circular and non-circular curves through interpolation, metric and inch thread cutting with variable pitch from the program, boring of cylindrical and tapered holes, parting and grooving. All operations of the CNC lathe for metal turning are programmed in standard G-code, compatible with the controllers selected at quotation.

Configuration comparison: CNC lathe for metal turning
The CNC lathe for metal turning is available in three main-spindle configurations that determine the type of parts that can be machined with full axial pass-through.
The standard configuration with a φ52mm bore and MT6 taper is the recommended variant for workshops machining predominantly solid parts without axial pass-through or small-diameter bars. The type B configuration with a φ80mm bore and φ90 1:20 taper is recommended for the production of medium-diameter tubular parts and bar stock up to φ75mm. The type C configuration with a φ105mm bore and φ113 1:20 taper of the CNC lathe for metal turning is the variant for the production of large-diameter tubular parts or bars up to φ100mm, common in the tube, hydraulic cylinder and fitting industries.
