STANDARD ETD-1000 Flatbed CNC Lathe
Ø1000 mm (39.37") Swing Heavy-Duty CNC Turning Platform
The STANDARD ETD-1000 Series Flatbed CNC Lathe is designed for heavy-duty metal turning applications that require large work envelopes, high rigidity, and reliable CNC control.
The machine provides a maximum swing over bed of Ø1000 mm (39.37 in) and supports workpieces weighing up to 6000 kg (13,227 lb). With multiple between-centers configurations ranging from 3 m to 10 m (118"–394"), the ETD-1000 series is suitable for machining large shafts, rollers, cylinders, and other heavy industrial components.
The machine is equipped with a FANUC 0i-TF CNC control, allowing standard G-code programming and integration with commonly used CAM systems.
What Is a CNC Lathe?
A CNC lathe (Computer Numerical Control lathe) is a machine tool used to produce cylindrical parts by rotating a workpiece while cutting tools move along programmed axes.
The cutting tools are mounted on a turret or tool post and controlled through CNC programming. Typical machining operations include:
- External turning
- Internal boring
- Facing
- Thread cutting
- Grooving
Because the tool movement is controlled digitally, CNC lathes can produce parts with consistent accuracy and repeatability.
The ETD-1000 uses a FANUC 0i-TF CNC system, which supports industry-standard G-code and is widely used in industrial turning environments.
Machine Overview
The ETD-1000 series is based on a flatbed lathe structure designed to support large workpieces and heavy cutting loads.
Key machine characteristics include:
-
Large swing diameter for oversized components
-
Wide machine bed for improved rigidity
-
High-capacity spindle system
-
Multi-tool turret for automated tool indexing
-
Optional hydraulic chuck for improved workholding efficiency
This configuration allows the machine to perform heavy-duty turning operations on long or large-diameter parts.

Typical Applications
Machines in the ETD-1000 class are commonly used in industries where large metal components require precision machining.
Typical applications include:
- Hydraulic cylinder machining
- Large shafts and rollers
- Mining equipment components
- Energy and power generation components
- Heavy industrial machinery parts
The large swing capacity and long bed options allow the machine to handle large-diameter and long-shaft workpieces.
CNC Control and Programming
The FANUC 0i-TF control provides standard CNC turning functionality including:
- G-code programming
- Canned turning cycles
- Tool offset management
- Spindle and feed control
- Program storage and editing
Because FANUC controls follow widely used programming conventions, machinists familiar with other CNC turning platforms can typically operate the machine with minimal training.
Workholding and Tooling Options
The machine is supplied with a Ø1000 mm (39.37 in) manual 4-jaw chuck as standard.
Optional workholding upgrades include:
- Hydraulic chuck systems
- Custom jaws for large parts
- Additional workholding solutions depending on application
The V4 turret supports multiple cutting tools and allows automatic indexing between operations, enabling several turning processes to be completed within a single program cycle.
Production and Delivery
ETD-1000 machines are supplied on a build-to-order basis.
Typical manufacturing lead times are approximately:
9–14 weeks from order confirmation, depending on configuration and options.
Customization may include:
-
different bed lengths
-
chuck configuration
-
CNC control options
-
automation or workholding options
Maintenance and Operation
Maintaining machining accuracy requires routine machine maintenance.
Recommended practices include:
- inspection of cutting tools and workholding systems
- lubrication system checks
- verification of tool offsets and machine alignment
- monitoring of cutting conditions during operation
Operators should follow standard safety procedures, including proper workpiece clamping and appropriate personal protective equipment.
Positioning Within CNC Lathe Categories
Flatbed CNC lathes such as the ETD-1000 are typically used for large workpieces and heavy machining operations.
This differs from smaller machines such as:
Benchtop CNC lathes, which are typically used for:
- small components
- light machining
- limited workpiece weight
The ETD-1000 is designed for industrial machining environments requiring large part capacity and high structural rigidity.
