Duality Lathe - Tormach CNC

Tormach on the web @ http://www.tormach.com

The Duality Lathe is an entirely new concept in CNC mill accessories. When used in combination with a PCNC 1100 mill, this integrated machine accessory can be operated as a CNC lathe, or combination lathe/mill. When used without the PCNC 1100 mill, the Duality Lathe becomes a conventional bench top manual lathe.

When mounted to the table of Tormach's PCNC 1100 mill, the Duality Lathe becomes a CNC lathe. Mounting the lathe is as simple as mounting a machine vise. Two cables, a power cable and a signal cable, provide integration of the mill and lathe control systems. The combined system offers CNC turning, cut-off, boring, drilling, and threading. Dedicated lathe control software includes code programming wizards and supports code programs as long as 10 million lines. The Duality Lathe includes a quick change tooling system. The Duality Lathe also includes spindle clamp and index wheel, allowing milling operations to be performed on parts while they are still mounted in the lathe chuck.

"With this new invention we're enabling our customers to leverage their investment in a CNC mill by providing CNC lathe capacities for a fraction of what it would normally cost." says Tormach CEO Greg Jackson. "The Duality Lathe is the perfect solution for entrepreneur's, researchers, inventors and educators, where shops have limited budgets and only occasional need for a CNC lathe."
