SMEC 2-axis horizontal lathes give machine shops a solid, repeatable platform for everyday turning and demanding production work. With a wide range of chuck sizes and bed lengths, these horizontal CNC lathes are built to handle everything from small precision parts to large diameter components while maintaining tight tolerances. Rigid box way construction on many models supports heavy cutting, while LM guide options offer smooth, fast axis movement for lighter, high speed work. Combined with proven Fanuc CNC controls, these 2-axis horizontal lathes offer the accuracy, reliability, and ease of use that modern CNC turning centers need for consistent, lights out machining.
Across the lineup, SMEC focuses on features that make a real difference on the shop floor. Generous spindle power, stable cast iron bases, and high capacity turrets help boost metal removal rates without sacrificing surface finish or part quality. These 2-axis horizontal lathes integrate easily into automated cells and factory automation solutions, making them a strong fit for high volume production, job shops, and OEM manufacturers alike. Whether you are upgrading older turning equipment or expanding capacity with new CNC machines, SMEC gives you a versatile family of 2-axis horizontal lathes that can grow with your workload and your business.
