Romi’s C 1100H heavy-duty flatbed lathe optimizes power, torque, accuracy and stability making it ideal for machining large parts. It is built with a Romi-made monoblock cast iron bed that absorbs machining efforts and vibration, making it highly rigid, stable and accurate.
The C 1100H is equipped with a cast iron headstock, also manufactured by Romi, that features a spindle with Timken bearings. It has a coolant and lubricating system equipped with a heat exchanger and sensors for temperature, pressure, flow and filter. It is powered by a high torque, continuously variable speed AC motor.
A manually driven quill has a built-in live center with high precision bearings and it is monitored by load and rotation sensors. It has a 28" (720 mm) swing over cross slide and 72 hp main motor. The C1100H features a Siemens Sinumerik 840D sl CNC with a 21.5" multi-touch screen.
The heavy-duty lathe has a net weight of 39,700 lbs (18,000 kg), maximum weight between centers of a generous 33,100 lbs (15,000 kg) and maximum torque of 12,429 Nm. Options available include milling headstock with Y-axis, deep hole drilling supports, special rests and a tool holder turret with automatic indexing and a Y-axis. All key components of Romi machine tools are said to be are designed and built in house for complete control and assurance of manufacturing quality.
The C 1100H is typically used in applications in the oil and gas, ethanol, naval, energy power generation, mining and other base industries.
