A CNC lathe controls the axes and tool changes automatically via a program (e.g. Siemens, Fanuc or Heidenhain). This enables complex contours, high repeatability and shorter setup times than manual machines – especially for series production.
Check spindle and operating hours, the condition of the tool turret, guideways and coolant system. It is also important that the control is still supported and the machine runs with its original spindle and gearbox.
The most common are Siemens Sinumerik, Fanuc and Heidenhain. These controls have the best spare parts and programming support. On the used market, machines with current control versions are significantly easier to resell.
Used CNC lathes from Asset-Trade typically cost 40–70% less than new machines. The price depends on turning diameter, spindle length, year of build, control and options such as subspindle or bar feeder.
Yes – most CNC lathes at Asset-Trade can be inspected and demonstrated under power at the site. You can check runout, tool change and program flow directly on the machine.
After inspection and purchase contract we organize transport, customs clearance and, on request, commissioning with training. For export customers we handle complete logistics to the port or directly to your facility.
