Used CLARK 1440 #9280722 for sale

CLARK 1440 is a heavy-duty machine tool designed for drilling and tapping large parts. It has a large, "X" axis travel of 44", and a "Y" axis travel of 16.5". This allows it to accommodate large workpieces of up to 17" in diameter. The spindle speed can reach as high as 3000 RPM, and can be varied infinitely within that range. 1440 also has a built-in electronic handle, which gives the operator greater control over the machine by providing a more natural feel during operation. Additionally, it has a spindle-shaft collet which enables more precise drilling and tapping. CLARK 1440 is equipped with a powerful 4 horsepower, direct-drive motor which gives this machine great torque to carry out operations such as facing, slotting, and pecking. It also has power feed on all of its three axes, giving it a great deal of speed and precision. In addition to the rapid traverse of 180 inches/minutes on the "X" and "Y" axes, the rapid traverse on the "Z" axis is 180 inches/minutes. This allows for more efficient machining of both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Furthermore, this machine tool is equipped with a 3-Axis DRO and a standard coolant package. The DRO features automatic bore and counterbore capabilities which give the operator the ability to produce very precise hole depths and diameters. The coolant package helps to keep the machine and its workpieces cool during operation and also minimizes the chances of component failure due to heat generated during the machining process. 1440 is a reliable machine which produces quality results. Its robust design and powerful motor allow it to handle even heavy duty operations, making it perfect for large-scale parts machining. When coupled with the correct tooling and settings, it can produce absolutely repeatable results with each and every operation, leading to a highly efficient and productive process.
