Above-Floor CNC Wheel Lathe

The Simmons CNC Wheel Lathe (SWL-400) is an above-floor wheel lathe for turning solid wheel or tired wheel treads of worn wheel sets of railway passenger and freight cars, diesel railcars, and locomotives. The lathe removes flat spots, shelling, and restores the wheel profile to pre-programmed specifications. Feeding-in, centering, chucking, wheel contour turning, and feeding-out are automatically controlled by the CNC controller. In addition, all operations can be initiated by pushbutton control from the operator's control pendant. An automatic probe system determines the wheel diameter, flange thickness, wheel width, and tread metal remaining with direct data input to the CNC control system.
