Our best estimate for a swiss-type lathe in this class — not a quote from Star Micronics. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The Star Micronics SV-32 pairs a 10-face turret with a FANUC 32i-B control that handles up to 9 axes simultaneously. Maximum bar diameter is 32 mm (1.26 in).

A turret on a Swiss-type lathe changes how tooling is planned. Ten faces give a place for the drills, taps and boring bars that a fixed tool post has no room for, and a job change becomes a matter of calling different faces instead of resetting holders. The table calls the control a 9-axis controller, which agrees with the 'up to 9 simultaneous' entry in the axis row. It does not name the individual axes, so ask for the axis list if a job depends on a second Y axis or an angled tool.

The table for this model is brief. Spindle speed and power, stroke, tools per turret face and weight are not given. In the same family the SV-38R is also listed with 10 stations, and with a 7.5kW continuous spindle on ø38mm (1-1/2in) bar: useful for judging the class, though not a substitute for SV-32 figures.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

10-face turret for drilling, boring and tapping tools
FANUC 32i-B control with up to 9 simultaneous axes

Limitations

The individual axes are not named, so Y-axis and B-axis capability must be confirmed
No spindle speed, power, stroke or weight is published in the table
Bar diameter is limited to 32 mm (1.26 in); the SV-38R is listed at ø38mm (1-1/2in)

Best For

Bar parts up to 32 mm (1.26 in) needing a wide spread of end-working tools Mixed drilling, boring and tapping from a 10-face turret Programs coordinating up to 9 simultaneous axes

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Which control does the SV-32 use?

A FANUC 32i-B, described in the table as a 9-axis controller. The axis row lists up to 9 simultaneous axes. No software options or control features beyond that are listed.

02 How many turret stations does the SV-32 have?

The table lists a 10-face turret. It does not state how many tools each face can hold or which faces can be driven, so the usable tool count has to come from the tooling layout for the machine quoted.

03 What is the maximum bar size of the SV-32?

Maximum bar diameter is 32 mm (1.26 in), and maximum turning diameter is listed at the same nominal size. The SV-38R is the next size up at ø38mm (1-1/2in).
