- Extremely quiet operation through electronically controlled drive technology
- Precision cast iron machine bed with hardened and ground guideways
- Suitable for workshops, industry, education and training environments
Machine Description
The CC-D6000 Basic is a CNC-capable lead screw lathe equipped with the nccad BASIC controller and 2D turning software. The machine supports simultaneous movement of two axes through interpolation, allowing accurate CNC turning operations.
The system requires an external PC for program creation, administration and data storage. CNC programs can be created independently on multiple PCs and then transferred to the machine as required.
A key advantage of the CC-D6000 Basic is its ability to operate both conventionally and under CNC control, providing flexibility for training, prototyping and production environments.
Please note that thread cutting is only available during conventional operation and is not supported in CNC mode.
