CW61180H CW61200H Conventional Lathe

Two build points matter most on this machine: one-piece high-strength cast iron bed for rigidity and accuracy; and way surfaces hardened by ultrasonic-frequency quenching. Structure decides how a machine ages — the specification table tells you what it does new, the build tells you what it does in year five.

The CW61180H CW61200H carries a 130 mm spindle bore diameter. Remember usable bar capacity always runs smaller than the bore itself once the chuck or collet mechanism is in place, so check your maximum bar stock against the workholding you intend to run, not against the bore figure alone.

The catalogued range is 3.15–315, 21 kinds; 3.5–290, 12 kinds r/min. The span matters more than the top figure: large diameters and tough materials live at the low end where torque does the work, while small-diameter finishing wants the top end. A range that covers both ends is what lets one machine carry mixed work.

Both sit in the conventional lathe group, so the decision is capacity and duty, not kind: put your largest part dimensions, material and yearly quantity against each specification table and one of the two will run out of a figure first. Send the drawing and we will name which of the two fits — including the case where the smaller machine does the job.

Standard configurations generally ship within 30 to 60 days of a confirmed order, with the date written into the contract. The CW61180H CW61200H then carries a 12-month warranty on main components, handled by the plant that built it, with lifetime technical support and spare parts identified by part number at handover.
