CNC Lathe for metal CKT560x1500 is a professional industrial solution combining advanced technology with robust design, dedicated to facilities requiring top-quality cutting performance. As an industrial lathe, it enables the execution of complex operations such as external, internal and spherical turning, threading, drilling, grooving and contouring, ensuring outstanding workpiece quality. Its key benefits include:

• Exceptional machining precision: Maximum turning diameter over bed 560 mm and over carriage 340 mm, with a bed width of 430 mm, guarantee excellent surface finish quality.
• Flexible spindle: Speed range 100–800 rpm and spindle bore 75 mm (option 90 mm) with spindle nose A2-11 allow machining of a wide variety of materials from steel to light alloys.
• Intuitive control: SIEMENS SINUMERIK 808D system with Siemens servo drives offers a dedicated mode for operators of conventional machines, reducing the learning curve for CNC operation.
• Rigid construction: Net weight 3600 kg and dimensions 3770×1500×1900 mm ensure excellent stability when machining workpieces up to 1500 mm in length.
• Tool efficiency: 8-position tool turret (option 6) with 25×25 mm tools speeds up tool change and shortens production cycles.
• Quick setup: Enables convenient tool setting, zero-point adjustment and corrections without programming – ideal for single-part production.
• Enhanced safety: Controlled feed movements and limited speeds allow precise and safe machine handling, reducing operational errors.
• Component durability: The automatic lubrication system for gears and guideways reduces wear and extends machine service life.
• Optimised cooling: The cooling system ensures thermal stability, protecting tools and components during intensive machining.
• Versatile applications: Designed for precision turning in mechanical, automotive and tooling industries, suitable for both batch and small-series production.
• Operational economy: Main motor power of 11 kW combines high performance with low energy consumption.
• Integration with machining cycles: Cooperation with machining cycles such as transverse turning, taper turning, threading and drilling requires only basic parameter input without G-code knowledge.
• Advanced automation: Options such as hydraulic chuck, hydraulic tailstock, bar feeder or chip conveyor improve production efficiency.
• Customisation: A wide range of optional configurations, such as Fanuc Oi-TF, Sinumerik 828D, tool probe or CAD/CAM software, allow the machine to be tailored to specific production requirements.
• European safety standards: The CE Declaration of Conformity confirms compliance with stringent European workplace safety standards.
