Optimum Structural Design
Following years of research and development Chester slant bed CNC lathes offer unique rigidity. The design concept behind the CH-20 and CH-26 series is to enhance heavy duty machining, precision and stability. With its excellent machine structure, you can handle heavy cutting with more ease than ever before.
• 45o slant bed construction assures solid support of turret and efficient chip removal.
• Massive base construction combined with advanced honey comb rib reinforcement minimises vibration while upgrading structural rigidity and stability.
• The entire machine construction is heavier than competitive models for outstanding stability.
• Box ways on X and Z axes, slide way surfaces are hardened, precision ground and coated with Turcite B for maximum wear resistance.
• Extra wide slide ways on X and Z axes for increased stability during machining.
• All major structural parts are manufactured from high quality Mehanite cast iron and tempered to relieve stress for lifetime deformation free operations.
• Cs axis function is available as an option enabling turning, drilling, grooving and milling functions to be performed in one setup.
Quality Features Throughout Assure Greater Value
• 10/12 Position Turret
• The turret is compactly constructed and combined with bidirectional random tool selection for quick tool change.
• Tool change time is quickly accomplished in only 0.6 seconds.
• The 10 position turret accommodates 25x25mm O.D. tools and 40mm I.D. tools.
• The 12 position turret accommodates 20x20mm O.D. tools and 32mm I.D. tools.
Programmable Tail stock
• The ruggedly constructed, programmable tail stock and quill movement can be controlled on the control panel for easy setup and accurate positioning.
• Tail stock movement is driven by the turret slide.
Complete Oil Fluid Separation
• In addition to the oil fluid separation design on X and Z axes, the cutting fluid tank is specially designed with a labyrinth construction to fully exhaust the floating oil. This assures no oil mixes with the cutting fluid.
• Double filters in the fluid tank ensure clean recirculated fluid.
Optional Tool Pre-Setter
• The tool pre-setter effectively reduces cutting tests while saving machining time.
• The mechanism is used for measuring tool diameter and length.
• The tool adjustment arm is powered and program controlled.
Optional Power Turret
• Equipped with VDI 30 power turret to ensure the most excellent machining results.
• Driven by Fanuc (L2) spindle motor.
Optional Cs Axis Function
• Cs Axis + live system, suitable for turning, drilling and milling functions.
• Siemens/Fanuc Controller
• Chip Conveyor and Chip Bucket Cart.
• Pedal Switch for Chuck Opening and Closing
• Work Lamp
• Coolant System
• Heat Exchanger
