Machine Center supplies machining Alcoy a lathe CNC Okuma, model LB3000EX

This is specifically a CNC Okuma lathe, model LB3000EX, whose main features are its ability to swing of 340 mm, with a length of turning of 500 mm and that, moreover, bears head with integrated motor and motorized tools. A choice which demonstrates the success that has brought them another machine Okuma that already had, a LB3000M.

A high performance machine

The lathe Okuma LB3000EX has a capacity of turning of 340 x 500, with a 30 HP in the integrated head engine, as well as a turret of 12 tools which can be motorized.

This machine is designed to produce medium and short piston series portajuntas, guides, snacks and other components for the manufacture of hydraulic cylinders. It is usually of average diameter pieces from 50 to 250 mm and which are unlikely to pass the 200 millimeters in length.

Taking into account that they are not cheaper machines on the market, I have to say that Yes are the best value for money. In addition, being a Japanese machine, justified the increase in price by the high level of technology that lead.

In fact, what most imported us when making the decision was the robustness of the machine, the integration of the engine in the head and the motorized turret. The numerical control is also a very important part of the machine and Okuma developed a fairly simple and practical control for the operator. And the reliability of the machine is also relevant.

Yes we thought already about Okuma, because it is a large manufacturer of CNC machines worldwide, and Moreover, already had another machine of similar characteristics since the year 2000, with an excellent result.

First, place because you have not had any problem with the previous Okuma machine and, secondly, by the technical service, that we consider that it is an important factor when buying a machine (although better not to use it more than the necessary)(clear).
