Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Campro CPL-106 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
The Campro CPL-106 is a 6 in chuck slant-bed CNC lathe and the fastest-turning model in the CPL series: its A2-5 spindle runs to 6,000 rpm. Maximum turning diameter is Ø290 mm (11.4 in), the standard turning diameter Ø240 mm (9.4 in), and the maximum turning length 350 mm (13.7 in).
Small-diameter work is what the speed is for. Surface speed falls with diameter, so bar parts and small chucked parts need rpm more than they need power, and the CPL-106 is specified accordingly: a 5.5 / 7.5 kW (10 HP) motor, a Ø45 mm (Ø1.7 in) hole through the draw tube and a 90 mm (3.5 in) spindle bearing diameter. An 8 in chuck is the listed option.
The machine is a plain 2-axis lathe with a tailstock. X travel is 150 + 20 mm and Z travel 350 mm (13.7 in), both with 24 m/min rapids on what Campro describes as high rigidity, high precision linear guideways. The turret has 10 stations and takes □20 mm O.D. tools and Ø32 mm boring bars, indexing in 0.3 sec. The tailstock quill is Ø70 mm (Ø2.7 in) with 80 mm (3.1 in) of travel and an MT-#4 taper.
Campro builds the series on a one-piece 45° box type structure in cast iron and encloses it fully. With the chip conveyor the floor plan is 2,962 x 1,591 mm (116 in x 62 in). The machine weighs 3,000 kg (6,613 lb), carries a 120 L (31 gal) coolant tank and needs 15 kVA. There is no live tooling on this model; the CPL-10MC is the version with a C axis and driven tools.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- 6,000 rpm spindle, the highest speed in the CPL series
- Compact: 2,962 x 1,591 mm (116 in x 62 in) with chip conveyor and 3,000 kg (6,613 lb)
- 24 m/min rapids on X and Z with linear guideways
- 10-station turret with a 0.3 sec tool change time
- Tailstock with a Ø70 mm (Ø2.7 in) quill included in the table
Limitations
- Spindle motor of 5.5 / 7.5 kW (10 HP) limits depth of cut
- Hole through the draw tube is Ø45 mm (Ø1.7 in), so bar work is limited to small stock
- Turning length stops at 350 mm (13.7 in)
- No C axis or driven tools; that is the CPL-10MC

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Maximum turning diameter is Ø290 mm (11.4 in) and the standard turning diameter Ø240 mm (9.4 in). Maximum turning length and distance between centers are both 350 mm (13.7 in). Swing over the bed is Ø450 mm (Ø17.7 in) and over the carriage Ø258 mm (Ø10.1 in).
02
An A2-5 spindle nose with a 6 in hydraulic chuck, or 8 in as an option. Spindle speed is 6,000 rpm and the spindle motor 5.5 / 7.5 kW (10 HP). The hole through the draw tube is Ø45 mm (Ø1.7 in) and the spindle bearing diameter 90 mm (3.5 in).
03
They share a floor plan and swing, but the CPL-158 is the heavier-duty spindle: A2-6 nose, 8 in chuck, 7.5 / 11 kW (15 HP) and 4,200 rpm, with a Ø52 mm (Ø2 in) draw tube hole. The CPL-106 turns faster, 6,000 rpm, and has slightly more Z travel at 350 mm (13.7 in).
04
The turret has 10 stations. The O.D. / I.D. row reads □20 / Ø32 mm, meaning 20 mm square shank turning tools and 32 mm boring bars. Tool change time is 0.3 sec. The table lists no driven tool data for this model.
