Citizen A20-VII Sliding Head Lathe
The new Citizen A20-VII combines modern technology and highest precision for the efficient production of turned parts up to 20mm in diameter. This latest model now includes an additional X2 axis on the sub-spindle and an additional 4 tools available on the new back-working toolpost. This allows even greater simultaneous machining possibilities over the type VI model.
7 axes, 5 turning tools, 4 rotary tools and in total 12 tools for front and back machining are fitted as standard allowing great flexibility.
Maximum cutting length is 165mm in one chucking. However, with the optional long work piece unit, components up to 400 mm can be machined. Plenty of power is available with the main spindle driven by a 3.7 kW motor and the sub-spindle 1.5 kW. The rotary tool drive also has a 0.75 kW, AC spindle motor giving 8,000 revs/min.
Rapid traverse rate is increased to 32m/min from 18m/min for type VI for a further reduction in idle time.
Comprehensive standard equipment, space-saving design, easy operation, low running costs and high productivity - all at an extremely attractive price makes the A20-VII a must-have for newcomers to sliding head lathes, for replacement of cam-controlled lathes or for the production of simple turned parts.
