Description
This JET lathe adapts the Anilam
®
4200T CNC system to control the various cutting actions. The CNC
system is designed for ease of use and intuitive interaction, which means no prior programming
experience is needed. A Shape Editor allows drawing a part graphically and creating the tool path without
programming. A Tool Page provides graphical description of 99 tools, so the operator can specify tool
radius, length and wear offsets, etc.
The longitudinal and cross feeds are driven by servo motors.
This lathe is especially suited for machining step axles or sleeve workpieces. It can also machine tapers,
do circular curves, and automatic threading. The tool post will raise, revolve, position, clamp and change
tools automatically. The lathe will also accept an electric or hydraulic chuck.
The lathe has a Teach-In mode, in which a part may be manufactured manually while the 4200T records
the corresponding program for later replication.
