Microweily Proturn RLX 1630 Combination Manual / CNC Lathe

Product overview

About this machine.

The Microweily CNC lathe range sets the standard for precision turning in New Zealand. Built by one of Taiwan's original machine tool manufacturers, with over 50 years of experience in producing both CNC and high speed conventional lathes, Microweily machines are engineered for accuracy, reliability, and long service life. Designed to handle everything from intricate toolmaking to high volume production, these CNC lathes combine robust construction with advanced control systems for superior performance. Manufactured in Taiwan and trusted worldwide

ProtoTRAK conversational CNC combines the ease of manual machining with the power of CNC. Its intuitive, plain-language interface and touchscreen controls make programming fast. No G-code required. With features like DXF/Parasolid file import, handwheel or CNC operation, and efficiency gains of up to 15x on lathes, ProtoTRAK is the ideal solution for toolrooms, short-run production, and prototyping. Capacity, capability & value! After the first day you will wonder why you ever used a manual lathe.

In 1995 ProtoTRAK introduced the simple to program and use ProtoTRAK conversational control for a Lathe (Proturn) and revolutionised the production of small batch and one off turned parts. The latest RLX ProtoTRAK offers more power and features whilst retaining the original simplicity. If you are looking for an edge over your competition, or you need flexibility and speed on the shop floor then ProtoTRAK really is the answer.

The Proturn RLX1630 has capacity, capability and value! A 15.6" touchscreen, tool library management, and Delta servo drives are a few of the many improvements, and after the first day you will wonder why you ever used a manual lathe.

Electronic Handwheels allow in manual operation the Handwheel to be switched between course and fine, as well it has the advantage of the handwheels not spinning around when in automatic mode.

The powerful TRAKing feature of the ProtoTRAK RLX CNC comes in that you no longer have to choose between the efficiency of CNC and manual control. With TRAKing, you don't have to go through the process of proving out the CNC programme before you press the Go button. You can run the CNC program at the speed at which you crank the handwheel. Go fast, go slow, stop and take a measurement, go backwards, whatever. You are in complete control as the machine moves the tooling through the programmed coordinates.

Microweily is one of the original Taiwanese machine tool companies with a history of over 30 years manufacturing both CNC and high speed precision conventional lathes.
