Electronic Lathes

554mm swing over bed, 15kW motor, upto 2000rpm spindle speeds, spindle bore 104mm. Fanuc 0iTD control ensures the operator can approach with the same confidence.

The EUROPA range of TC CNC lathes represent the latest in performance, reliability and productivity. A high specification series of lathes with a host of features you will not find on similar machines. A large D1-8 camlock spindle with 86mm through spindle bore capacity. Heavy duty, Meehanite precision ground bed with induction hardened ways.
Electronic variable spindle controlled via an inverter over three geared ranges to provide constant torque. Powered by a 7.5kW FANUC motor with FANUC X & Z 1.2 Kw servo motors.

460mm swing, 11kW spindle motor, 1500mm between centres. Cutting edge design and construction quality. Uses high performance cast iron with Warren-type construction for maximum strength and optimum swarf clearance.

The MultiTurn has 6 models to choose from, starting with the 1000, which has a 330mm swing over bed, up to the MultiTurn 6000 which has a 780mm swing and many bed length options up to 6000mm.

The MultiTurn range takes a highly established, robustly engineered lathe concept from Colchester that makes it the perfect machine for many of today’s CNC turning applications. Used CNC Lathes including the Multiturn range, are also available in Kent.

The Colchester MultiTurn Series machines are perfect for CNC users looking for increased versatility on one-off and small batch production. First time CNC buyers and jobbing shops looking for simplicity of programming.

The Alpha 1350XS is a compact machine. 650mm between centres. 350mm swing over bed. Utilises the Fanuc OiTD Control coupled with Harrison’s Alpha System. The ‘Alpha System’ is a simple and user friendly teach lathe control, enabling operators to perform semi automatic turning operations. The Alpha 1350XS is particularly suitable for precision turning work in a wide range of applications.

The Alpha 1400XC with full c-axis can be supplied with an 8 station VDI 20 indexing turret or Capto toolpost. This machine gives operators a full range of milling, drilling and tapping functions reducing the need for second operation production for one-offs and small batch components.

The Alpha 1400XS offers an optimum combination of accuracy, capacity and cutting performance. Suited to producing detailed and intricate ‘one-offs’ to the highest standard of finish. 7.5kW main spindle, 400mm swing over bed and 1250mm between centres.

The Alpha XC 3 Axis CNC combination lathe is identical in functionality to the Alpha AX range of machines. Has the addition of a fully interpolating c-axis whilst still retaining the operational simplicity.

To turn larger diameter components accurately, efficiently and cost effectively. Heavy duty lathe with swing capacities upto 6000mm. Can be fitted with a high powered 18.5kW motor and 105mm spindle bores.

This machine is largest within the Alpha range. Capacity between centres of upto 4000mm. Spindle bore of upto 170mm. Manual guide i conversational programming system is standard for fully automatic turning. Whilst the machine is operating in Manual Guide i the Alpha’s Fanuc OiTD control is creating a CNC programme in the background this means the conversion from conversational to CNC mode is instant.
