This listing features a Citizen L16 Type VI Swiss type lathe, manufactured in 1997, with a machine serial number X5815. The machine has logged over 9999:59:59 hours of operation. It includes a modification known as the Option Type L216 U411B, which incorporates a Back Spindle Fixed Position Stop Device (also called the Back Spindle Lock). This device allows the back spindle motor to halt and be mechanically locked in a fixed position via a pawl inserted into a notch on an indexing plate using an M78 code in the program. The indexing plate has been modified with three additional notches spaced 90 degrees apart, and additional circuitry enables unlocking, rotating, and locking the back spindle motor at new positions by programming an M61 after the M78 command. Multiple M61 commands can be used to achieve 180° or 270° indexing.

The machine is equipped with a Spego 124-8Z bar feeder (serial number 97-7-69), which is attached on the right side and loaded with multiple metal rods. The bar feeder is supported by adjustable stands and shows signs of use, including some dirt and wear marks. A control box with indicator lights and a warning label is also attached to the bar feeder.

The control panel of the lathe features buttons, a numeric keypad, and a red emergency stop button, alongside a display screen. The machining area is protected by a transparent cover. The machine's outer casing shows signs of wear and scratches consistent with industrial use. Additional components include a Tamagawa 5K-1X-3-8-108 encoder (serial number A013984M) and an inverter drive FR-Z220-0.4K (drive serial 04166061 TD840A582G51).

Overall, this Citizen L16 Type VI lathe is a Swiss type machine with advanced spindle indexing capabilities and comes with a bar feeder and essential control and safety features. The equipment has been used in an industrial workshop environment and displays typical wear from operation.

Seller's description

Machine was purchased 8/1/1997
Its logged more than 9999:59:59 hours

Modification: Option Type L216 U411B, Back Spindle Fixed Position Stop Device (also known as the Back Spindle Lock). The back spindle motor halts and is mechanically locked in a fixed position by inserting a pawl into a notch on an indexing plate using an M78 code in the program. The indexing plate has been modified with three additional notches spaced 90° apart. Additional circuitry has been installed to unlock the back spindle motor, rotate it to the next notch, and lock it in the new position. This process is initiated by programming an M61 after the motor is locked with an M78. The M61 command can be executed multiple times to achieve 180° or 270° indexing.
