L32 CNC Sliding Head: One platform, four powerful variants. Citizen’s popular sliding head machine evolves with proven performance.
Available in four models – VIII, X, XII, and XII ATC for diverse production needs and flexibility.
A wide range of tooling options and flexible layouts enable rapid changeovers and reduced setup time for diverse batch sizes.
L32 suits high-volume runs or specialized components, tailoring performance to your shop floor easily.
The L32-VIII is a 7-axis model offering excellent cost-performance. The XII ATC model includes an Automatic Tool Changer, along with a fully programable B axis for enhanced production ability. Type X and above models feature a Y-axis on the sub spindle for greater control on back end machining.
LFV technology reduces swarf build-up, extends tool life, and improves chip control in difficult materials. Supports bar diameters up to 38mm, expanding application range significantly.
Users can mount up to 40 tools simultaneously, optimising output and reducing the need for frequent tool changes.
The L32 CNC Sliding Head combines power, adaptability, and intelligent design, a future-ready solution for precision machining.
