Compact CNC Turning Center for High Volume Production

CNC turning centers provide repeatable precision, automated tool changes, and programmable feeds and speeds that eliminate human variability. In high volume environments, this translates to consistent part quality, reduced scrap rates, faster cycle times, and the ability to run complex operations with minimal operator intervention — significantly lowering per-part production costs.

Spindle power ranges from 20 HP on the compact FEMCO HL-250 up to 75 HP on the FEMCO HL-55/1250 and Clausing CNC Lathe. This range allows manufacturers to match machine capability to cutting requirements, from precision small-diameter work to heavy interrupted cuts on large-diameter components.

Yes. The FEMCO HL-55 NT and HL-55/1250 are specifically designed for heavy cutting and interrupted cuts. Their wide wrap-around box ways combined with FANUC 35 HP spindle motors and two-speed ZF gearboxes provide the rigidity and torque needed to maintain long-term accuracies and excellent surface finishes even under demanding load conditions.

These machines serve aerospace manufacturing, military, shipbuilding and marine, oil field and oil country applications, power utilities, pump manufacturing, electric motor rebuilding, gearbox work, and general precision manufacturing. Their heavy-duty construction and broad capacity range make them suitable for both job shops and high-production industrial facilities.

All FEMCO models are equipped with industry-standard FANUC CNC controls for reliable operation and easy programming. The Clausing CNC Lathe supports FANUC Oi control as standard, with optional Siemens CNC control available. Both control platforms offer extensive programming flexibility and are widely supported by operators across North American manufacturing facilities.

Yes. Every machine purchase includes delivery, professional installation by expertly trained service engineers, and operator training tailored to your facility. Machines are delivered, installed, and warranted to ensure they are operational quickly, reducing downtime and ensuring your team can run production confidently from the start.
