Used Spinner Cnc Lathes for Sale 41

Spinner's market position makes its used machines easy to evaluate: German engineering and assembly, standard Fanuc or Siemens controls rather than proprietary systems, and new prices that undercut the premium German names, which translates into used prices that undercut them further. The TC line is the core: TC400 and TC600 class machines handle general subcontract turning, with sub-spindle (SMCY) versions adding complete machining through driven tools and Y-axes. The compact PD and SB series cover small precision parts, while MT machines move toward mill-turn work.

The practical comparison runs two directions. Against a used Doosan Puma or Hyundai lathe of the same capacity, the Spinner typically costs similar or slightly more, returning German-market service culture and often lower hours from smaller-shop use. Against a used DMG Mori CTX, the Spinner is clearly cheaper for comparable specification, with the trade-off being a smaller global service footprint outside German-speaking Europe.

Buying a used Spinner cnc lathes: what to check

Confirm the control type first, since Spinner fitted both Fanuc and Siemens across the range and your programming environment should match. On sub-spindle versions, run a part-transfer cycle and check synchronisation; verify Y-axis travel and driven-tool stations for runout and noise. Measure turret repeatability and inspect the coupling for crash marks.

Many used Spinners come from small precision shops, so hour counts are often genuinely low; verify them against the control's internal counters and ask for maintenance invoices. Check spindle bearings through the speed range, examine the chuck and hydraulics for leaks, and confirm bar feeder, parts catcher, and steady rest inclusions explicitly. Check whether the machine retains its original Siemens or Fanuc control documentation and parameter backups, as Spinner support is straightforward but parameter loss complicates recommissioning. Bar feeder interfaces should be tested live if barwork is your application.
