MFG Machinery CA6180 Heavy-Duty Precision Lathe

800mm Swing, Master-Crafted Scraped Joints & 400mm Wide Bed for Heavy Batch Processing

Product Overview
The MFG Machinery CA6180 is an elite, heavy-duty conventional horizontal lathe engineered to dominate large-scale batch processing of massive shaft and disk components. Expanding upon our premium CA series, it boasts a massive 800mm swing over the bed while maintaining an ultra-rigid 400mm wide guideway span cast from high-strength copper-chromium alloyed iron. To guarantee flawless accuracy and geometric stability under heavy cutting loads, all critical joint surfaces—including the headstock, bed, tailstock, and carriage—undergo meticulous manual scraping and grinding by master technicians. Equipped with an integrated rapid traverse mechanism, precision-ground gears, and an active cycloidal pump lubrication system, the CA6180 is the ultimate high-efficiency workstation for demanding industrial environments.

Key Features & Premium Engineering

• Ultra-Rigid Copper-Chromium Alloy Bed: The 400mm wide machine bed is cast from high-strength iron enriched with specialized copper and chromium materials. The guide rails undergo intermediate frequency induction quenching to an exceptional depth of 5mm, maximizing wear resistance and vibration absorption.
• Master-Crafted Manual Scraping: Unmatched assembly precision. The joint surfaces between the headstock, bed, tailstock, and carriage are traditionally scraped and ground by hand. This high-end manufacturing standard ensures exceptional precision retention and structural stability over decades of use.
• Rapid Traverse & Intuitive Joystick Control: Designed to slash cycle times in batch production. The centralized control system features a fast-moving rapid traverse mechanism on the apron, operated via a single-handle, intuitive joystick for effortless tool positioning.
• Precision Spindle & Ground Gearing: The headstock features precision spindle bearings and a large Φ80mm or Φ105mm through-hole to accommodate oversized bar stocks. The transmission utilizes precision-ground gears, which significantly increases gear hardness while drastically reducing operational noise.
• Active Thermal-Control Lubrication: Equipped with a dedicated cycloidal pump for headstock lubrication. This system guarantees optimal oil cleanliness and heat dissipation, effectively extending the lifespan of internal bearings and gears even during continuous, high-temperature operations.
• Industrial-Grade Lead Screw & Tool Post: Features a premium domestic lead screw paired with a high-quality bronze alloy nut to ensure superior wear resistance and pitch accuracy. It comes standard with a robust 4-station high-strength tool holder (shank size: 25x25mm).
• Comprehensive Universal Machining: Highly versatile for internal/external cylindrical turning, taper turning, end facing, drilling, and machining complex oil grooves. It directly cuts various Metric, Inch, Module, and Diametral Pitch (D.P.) threads without complex setups.
• Rigorous "Strong Cutting" QA Testing: Before shipping, every CA6180 undergoes strict factory inspection procedures, including a mandatory "strong cutting test," ensuring the machine delivers peak precision stability and processing reliability under maximum loads.
