The CTX 10 Series lathes from DMG are now available with optional counter spindle, 12 driven tools and Y-axis for complete machining capability.
These lathes come standard with 45-degree slanted bed designed in a 4-track design with linear roller guideways for best operating conditions for both the dynamic cross slide and hydraulically traversable tailstock. Absolute measuring systems in the X and Z axes provide short positioning times and high rapid traverse rates.
The CTX 10 series offers three control alternatives--the Siemens 840D, Heidenhain Plus IT and Fanuc 32i. All controls are mounted on the pivoting SlimLinePanel with 15" TFT screen.
Automation is only the tip of the iceberg for Famar, which also provides multitasking options for its vertical lathes and horizontal five-axis machine tools.
The C 1100H is a heavy-duty flatbed lathe built with a monoblock cast iron bed that absorbs machining efforts and vibration, making it highly rigid, stable and accurate.
