The Nexturn SA(B) Series represents a proven line of 7-axis high precision CNC Swiss-type automatic lathes designed for continuous production of small, complex, and tight-tolerance components. Engineered and built in Korea, these machines combine Fanuc or Mitsubishi CNC controls with the highest-quality components — NSK ballscrews, THK linear guideways, FAG bearings and KHK gears — to deliver unmatched rigidity, accuracy, and dependability.
Ideal for industries requiring precision production turning such as medical, aerospace & defense, automotive, electronics, and general small-parts manufacturing, the SA(B) Series provides the stability and accuracy needed for machining high-value parts in demanding production environments. Competing directly with machines from Marubeni Citizen-Cincom, Star, Tornos, Doosan, Hanwha, Mazak, Swiss-Tech, and Swissturn, Nexturn offers a more cost-effective solution without compromising on speed, rigidity, or performance.
Key Features
- 7-Axis Simultaneous Control: Z1, X1, Y, Z2, X2, C1, and C2 axes provide full multi-channel machining on both main and sub-spindles.
- Tooling Capacity: Up to 22 total tools (depending on model) including OD turning, Y-axis ID, and live tooling for extensive machining flexibility.
- Bar Capacities:
- SA-12B: 12mm (0.472″)
- SA-20B: 20mm (0.787″)
- SA-32B: 32mm (1.26″)
- Spindle Performance:
- Main Spindle: Up to 10 HP / 10,000 RPM built-in motor for high-speed, high-rigidity cutting.
- Sub-Spindle: Up to 3 HP / 8,000 RPM, enabling simultaneous back-side machining.
- Dual Channel Control Architecture: Powered by either Fanuc 0i-TF Plus or Mitsubishi M80A, offering conversational programming, 3D graphics, Ethernet connectivity, and dual-path synchronization.
- Guide Bushing Options: Full-stroke rotary synchronous guide bushing with dual bearing structure for superior support and accuracy; optional non-guide bushing configurations available.
- Live Tooling Power: Up to 1.3 HP / 6,000 RPM cross-drilling units and 1 HP / 5,000 RPM back-end live tooling for milling, drilling, and tapping with ER-16 collet interfaces.
- Chip & Coolant Systems: Optional high-pressure coolant up to 2,000 PSI improves chip evacuation and extends tool life; lift-up style door and efficient enclosure design ensure operator comfort and clean machining.
- Servo Learning Oscillation: Standard or optional feature on all models—automatically breaks chips during turning operations for better part finishes and unattended operation.
- Automation Ready: Seamless integration with A+ Automation solutions such as OB7 Collaborative Robots, Mitsubishi LoadMate Plus™, and Fanuc CRX, as well as TRACER magazine bar feeders for long bar and lights-out production.
