Narrow Lab-Turn CNC Lathe - Fits thru 3' Door

Narrow footprint, production CNC lathe that will fit through a 3’ door. The narrow Lab-Turn CNC Lathe is designed to fit down narrow halls and into small spaces.  Standard features for the narrow lab-turn CNC lathe includes our toolroom set-up - 5" manual chuck, tool post, and tail stock.  Precision turret is optional.
Advantages of Lab-Turn Lathes:
- Production grade components with heavy castings.
- Move through narrow hallways and narrow passages.
- Fits into small spaces - still does real CNC work.
