Small-Footprint Turning Center With Big Capabilities
Turning small parts on a large lathe usually isn't the most efficient use of a company's assets, and actually may have an adverse effect on the bottom line. The SL-10 CNC lathe from Haas Automation, Inc., provides an economical solution for small parts turning in a compact package that is loaded with full-size features.
The SL-10 takes up only 6.5' x 4.5' of floor space, yet provides a generous 11" turning diameter, 14" turning length and a 16.25" swing over the front apron. This compact machine is a valuable addition to any shop needing a "second-op" machine, or wanting to add a lathe where space is at a premium. It is also the perfect lathe for start-up shops, or as a first step into CNC turning.
The SL-10 comes standard with a 6.5" hydraulic chuck and a 12-position bolt-on tool turret. A 15-hp (peak) vector dual drive spindle provides speeds to 6,000 rpm for high surface feedrates, and an A2-5 spindle nose accepts bar stock up to 1.75". A host of high-productivity options, such as a tool presetter, parts catcher, automatic chip auger and tailstock, are available for the SL-10 to further boost productivity, and the Haas Servo Bar 300 bar feeder may be added for unattended operation.
Far from a stripped down machine, the SL-10 features the same user-friendly control found on every Haas CNC machine, and with a compact base price, it's friendly to the bottom line as well.
