Marubeni Citizen-Cincom Turning Center Features Modular Tooling System

Marubeni Citizen-Cincom’s Cincom Series L12 Swiss turning center features Citizen’s user-friendly editing function, which utilizes multi-line multiaxis programming along with superimposed and synchronized control. The L12 is equipped with a detachable guide bushing as standard. This allows the machine to be used as a regular guide bushing type automatic lathe for long and small diameter workpieces. Once the guide bushing is removed, it can be used to machine short workpieces with less material waste.

In addition, the L12 Type X includes more features for improved performance, function and ease of use. These features include a modular tooling system on the gang and back tool posts that enables a wider variety of tooling layouts; a Y2-axis on the back spindle which expands the range of usable tools; and a built-in motor-type back spindle that enables a maximum speed of 12,000 rpm. The machine is designed for an optimal balance of strength and weight to improve rigidity.
