4-axis turning center

The LU3000 EX turning center, Okuma’s latest evolution of 4-axis turning in the 8" to 10" chuck class, provides process flexibility and high removal rates. The large work ranges of the upper (V12) and lower (V8) turrets mean less interference and more flexibility. The lathe has a 45° box bed with all box way construction, providing optimum support for the carriage and cross slide, while the three-point bearing support for the spindle delivers stability and long life. The LU3000 EX is equipped with Okuma’s OSP-P300, a one-screen, easy operation control system combined with an open-architecture design, making it suitable for operators of all levels.
