SX-38 Type A/B CNC Swiss-type Automatic Lathe

The Star SX-38 Type A/B, a 12-axis compact Swiss-style machine with slant-bed construction, maximizes productivity for difficult-to-machine materials up to 42mm diameter.  The capability to keep 80 tools resident with high horsepower motors means heavy metal removal rates and flexibility.  B-axis surfacing with up to 135 degree travel handles up to 0.5″ diameter tooling.  This high-functioning, large-diameter model – with gang-type and turret-type tool posts – serves the precision machining requirements demanded by the medical, automotive, and aviation industries.
