Star CNC Machine Tool Corp.’s SV-38 Swiss-type lathe series accommodates workpiece diameters ranging to 38 mm (1.5"). The lathe features guide bushing capability for long parts, as well as an option to work directly out of the main spindle for shorter components. The machine's 10-station turret can use multiple tools in each position, and is equipped with a B-axis control function for angular machining. A nine-position tool post can be used for “pinch turning” and secondary operations, such as simultaneous cross drilling and milling. In addition, the eight-spindle backworking unit with Y axis can use a variety of tooling for overlapping operations and as many as three tools can be applied in a cut simultaneously, which can reduce production time and improve profitability.
