Automatic CNC Lathe Tool Changers

The automatic hydraulic turret on the Clausing CNC Lathe is compatible with Fanuc Oi control as standard, with Siemens CNC control available on the SC series. Other control configurations may be available as options. Both platforms allow full programmatic control of turret indexing, spindle speed, and feed rates for seamless automated machining cycles.

The Clausing CNC Lathe series accommodates swing over bed from 35" to 80" and machining lengths from 70" to 488", depending on the model. Bar and spindle bore capacity ranges from 6" to 24.02". Maximum workpiece weight between centers reaches up to 33,000 lbs, making these machines ideal for large-diameter oil field, marine, and heavy industrial components.

Yes. The Clausing CNC Lathe series is specifically designed for oil field, oil country, marine, and shipbuilding applications. The combination of large swing capacity (up to 80"), heavy workpiece weight support (up to 33,000 lbs between centers), and a programmable hydraulic tailstock with rotating quill makes these machines well-configured for the oversized components common in these industries.

The Clausing CNC Lathe series offers main spindle motor power ranging from 50 hp to 75 hp, with inverter power up to 75 hp. Spindle speed is controlled via a 4-range auto change AC variable drive with CSS (Constant Surface Speed) control, providing a range of 7–700 RPM to suit a variety of large-diameter turning and facing operations.

Each Clausing CNC Lathe comes with a one-year warranty backed by the Clausing Service Center, which stocks over 80,000 parts with 95% of orders shipped within 24 hours. Technical support is available by phone and on-site from qualified technicians. Installation support including leveling screws and pads is also provided to ensure accurate machine setup from day one.

Optional CE electrics are available for Clausing CNC Lathes, enabling compliance with European safety and electrical standards. This makes them suitable for customers with international operations or export requirements. Standard configurations are designed for 230/460 Volt, 3-phase power typical of North American industrial facilities. Contact T.R. Wigglesworth to confirm available compliance options for your region.
