2014 MILLTRONICS ML16 CNC LATHE – CENTURION 7 CONVERSATIONAL CONTROL – 8-POSITION AUTOMATIC TURRET – TAILSTOCK – FULL ENCLOSURE – 220V 3 PHASE

DESCRIPTION

Available for immediate sale is this 2014 Milltronics ML16 CNC Lathe, equipped with the highly regarded Milltronics Centurion 7 CNC conversational control, 8-position automatic indexing turret, tailstock, full machine enclosure, coolant system, and 3-jaw chuck.

The Milltronics ML Series was designed as a versatile CNC/toolroom lathe platform combining conventional turning flexibility with full CNC machining capability. These machines are particularly well suited for toolrooms, prototype departments, maintenance facilities, educational laboratories, R&D operations, and short-to-medium production runs.

This particular machine is substantially better equipped than a basic ML16 toolroom configuration due to its automatic 8-station turret, allowing multiple turning, facing, boring, drilling, threading, and related tooling operations to be performed without manually changing tools.

The machine is controlled through the Milltronics Centurion 7 CNC, well known for its conversational programming capability and operator-friendly interface.

This machine was acquired from a university facility and appears complete and intact. The electrical cabinet is exceptionally well organized and includes Yaskawa servo equipment and associated Milltronics control electronics.

The machine was reported to be running when removed from service by the previous owner. We have not powered or tested the machine and therefore are selling it based upon its present condition.

CNC CONTROL

The machine is equipped with the Milltronics Centurion 7 CNC control, providing an operator-friendly interface for CNC turning operations.

The Centurion platform was developed to allow operators to perform both conventional-style toolroom work and programmed CNC machining without requiring the programming complexity associated with many traditional production CNC controls.

Control functions include:

• Conversational CNC programming

• G-code CNC operation

• Tool offsets

• Feedrate override

• Spindle speed override

• Cycle start

• Tool reset

• Flood coolant control

• Mist coolant control

• Spindle forward/reverse

• Manual setup functions

• Automatic machining cycles

AUTOMATIC 8-POSITION TURRET

A major feature of this machine is the 8-position automatic indexing turret.

Unlike basic ML16 machines equipped with a manual tool post, the automatic turret allows multiple cutting tools to remain installed and automatically indexes the required tool during a CNC program.

This substantially increases the machine's usefulness for:

• Production turning

• Facing

• OD turning

• ID boring

• Drilling

• Threading

• Grooving

• Part profiling

• Repetitive production

• Prototype manufacturing

The ML Series was available with automatic tool turret configurations, and period documentation confirms 8-position automatic turret installations on ML16 machines.

CAPACITY – ML16 SERIES

Published ML16 specifications indicate approximately:

Swing Over Bed: 17"

Swing Over Gap: 25.9"

Gap Length: 12.75"

Swing Over Cross Slide: Approximately 7.48"

Spindle Bore: Approximately 2.05"

Spindle Speed: Up to approximately 4,000 RPM

Spindle Motor: Approximately 18 HP peak / 12 HP continuous

Tailstock Quill Travel: Approximately 6"

Tailstock Quill Diameter: Approximately 2.55"

Tailstock Taper: #4 Morse Taper

Exact specifications can vary according to the particular ML16 configuration and should be confirmed by the buyer.
