STAR ECAS 32T CNC lathe was built in 2005 in Japan by STAR MICRONICS
CO., LTD. The machine, designed for the precise machining of complex
workpieces, is used in many industries, such as automotive and
aerospace. Its extensive machining capabilities facilitate complex
machining processes, such as turning, drilling and threading, both on
the front and back of the workpiece.
Compared to other lathes available on the market, the offered STAR
ECAS-32T swiss-type lathe stands out with the use of 11 axes, two
10-position turrets and two spindles (main spindle and sub-spindle).
The extremely rigid design, in turn, provides the incredible process
stability which is necessary to achieve excellent precision and
quality of the produced parts. All this is complemented by intelligent
CNC control, in which even the most advanced work programs are created
in just a few steps. The STAR MICRONICS ECAS 32T CNC lathe weighs 5700
kg.
