Construction and Technology of the CNC Pipe Lathe CKT1000X3000
CNC Pipe Lathe CKT1000X3000 Spindle Bore 270 mm has been designed for durability, precision and ease of operation. The key components include:
Structure and Bed
The massive body and wide bed ensure excellent rigidity and vibration damping. The centres distance of 3000 mm and maximum swing over bed of 1000 mm make it possible to machine long parts such as pipes and shafts with high stability.
Spindle and Drive
The spindle with a 270 mm bore (optionally 220 mm) and a speed range of 22–300 rpm driven by an 11 kW motor provides high cutting performance. The standard 4-jaw chuck 630 mm (optional 3-jaw 400 mm) ensures secure clamping of workpieces.
Guides and Drives
Linear guides and precise servo drives ensure smooth movement of X/Z axes (travel 2850/620 mm) with a rapid feed rate of 4/8 m/min, minimising positioning errors and ensuring high dynamic performance.
Control System
The standard Siemens Sinumerik 808D control (optionally Siemens 828D or Fanuc Oi-TF) enables precise programming and optimisation of machining processes. The compact control panel with protection rating IP65 ensures reliability in harsh industrial environments, while the RS-232 interface allows seamless CAD/CAM integration.
Precision and Efficiency
Industrial Lathe CKT1000X3000 Spindle Bore 270 mm offers exceptional precision thanks to advanced CNC control and a robust design. Axis X/Z repeatability of 0.012/0.02 mm and 0.025 mm, combined with a feed rate of 4/8 m/min, enables optimised tool paths, shorter cycle times and greater productivity. The powerful 11 kW motor makes the machine ideal for machining long components in both series and single-piece production.
