1998 Mazak Slant Turn 60N CNC Lathe

The 1998 Mazak Slant Turn 60N CNC Lathe is an industrial workhorse built for serious turning capacity, boasting a 36-inch swing and 120.25-inch distance between centers. Powered by a robust 60 horsepower spindle motor with a 6.5-inch bore and 1000 RPM capability, this machine is engineered to handle heavy shaft work, large-diameter parts, and high-volume production cycles. With a 20-inch air chuck, Mazatrol T-Plus control, and 15-position turret, it offers solid performance for tough applications in sectors such as energy, shipbuilding, and transportation.

Compared to compact turning centers, the Slant Turn 60N delivers immense rigidity and longer stroke support, especially when paired with its hydraulic steady rest and MT #6 tailstock. Machines with smaller bores and lower HP configurations fall short of the torque and part-length capacity found in this Mazak model, making it an ideal solution for large-scale precision work in demanding environments.
