A Hardinge lathe taken to a new level of accuracy and advancement with computer controls and nearly infinite threading options
This South Bend lathe features a super precision digital threading control, which replaces the traditional threading gearbox with a microprocessor-controlled, servo-driven leadscrew.
Simply type in the desired thread pitch on the numeric pad of the touchscreen LCD panel and start the threading cycle.
This system controls and synchronizes the main spindle rotation on 2-axis feed rate to produce a precise threading cycle for any given inch or metric thread pitch.
Also, noise and vibration are reduced as there are no gears in the gearbox.
This is an ideal machine for super high-precision work on small parts using 5C collets.
This machine uses a Yasakawa inverter with a 3 HP induction motor to provide true variable spindle speed from 50-4000 RPM.
The spindle is hardened and ground then mounted on high-precision pre-loaded angular contact bearings for sustained precision and rigidity. Spindle runout is within 0.00125 mm (50 millionths of an inch.)
The positioning of the Mitutoyo linear scales on the X- and Z-axis are shown on the Delta touchscreen digital readout for accurate and repeatable lathe operations.
The precision-ground dovetail bedways have been Turcite-coated for smooth, ultra-precise movement.
