COLCHESTER TORNADO A90 CNC automatic lathe

COLCHESTER TORNADO A90 CNC automatic lathe was built in 2001 in the United Kingdom by 600Lathes. The machine, equipped with a bar feeder, is an excellent choice for precise, fully automatic machining of workpieces with a maximum diameter of 170 mm. The machining process is performed inside a large work space by means of a high-speed spindle and cutting tools taken from a 12-position turret. All this is complemented by a intelligent FANUC CNC controller, which enables the creation of advanced machining programmes in just a few steps. The TORNADO A90 CNC turning center weighs approximately 3500 kg.
