Description

The LabTurn is suitable for CNC training as well as for the production of small workpieces. The compact and mobile CNC lathe represents the full range of functions of a large production machine. The 8-station tool turret has four tools each for internal and external machining and long workpieces can be machined with a tailstock. The main spindle rotates continuously up to 3000 revolutions and the 3-jaw chuck has a diameter of 100 mm (3.9 in). With its simple, intuitive operator guidance, the Siemens 808 controller is the ideal introduction to CNC applications.

Controls & Software

SINUMERIK 808D ADVANCE -- the perfect solution for modern standard machines
CNC and drive communicate via a high-speed bus to ensure efficient positioning control plus high precision and optimum cutting performance
This is topped by a guaranteed superior price/performance ratio
This globally leading CNC technology provides high performance and power for the control of standard lathes
In combination with a new generation of spindle and axis drives, the SINUMERIK 808D ADVANCE with 8.4" LCD provides an innovative ready-to-use digital CNC solution for modern standard machines
Advantages - Digital solution provides higher precision:
- Increased overload capacity supports a faster acceleration and deceleration of machine tools
- Constant cutting speeds result in an increased surface quality of the workpiece
Increased ruggedness:
- During heavy machining operations, an automatic spindle torque adjustment will help protect machining tools and spindle systems.
- The SINAMICS features a wide voltage range to prevent machine shut-downs during poor voltage supply conditions. This will significantly reduce machine down-times.
Increased operator comfort:
- A fast Ethernet connection facilitates easy start-up and diagnostics of machine tools and simplifies NC program use
