Compare Sufeng CNC lathes, including slant-bed, flat-bed and Swiss-type models. Match bar diameter, turning length, workholding, tools and loading to your part.
How to select cnc lathes
Diameter, length and support
Check turning diameter, bar capacity, spindle bore, distance between centres and any tailstock or steady-rest requirement.
Tools and production cycle
Count turning, boring, threading, grooving and any milling operations. Include loading, measurement, chip control and unloading in the cycle-time review.
Prepare your workpiece review

Discuss your workpiece →Frequently asked questions
When should I consider a Swiss-type lathe?
Consider a Swiss-type lathe for slender, small-diameter parts produced in volume from bar stock. Check bar diameter, part length, operations and support requirements.
How do slant-bed and flat-bed lathes differ for selection?
Slant-bed layouts generally support chip evacuation and compact automation. Flat-bed layouts can suit some long-shaft and general turning tasks. Select around the part and process.
