Machine BedColchester-Harrison’s cutting-edge lathe design and

construction quality begins with the machine bed. Alpha

beds use high performance cast iron, with a unique

‘Warren’ type construction for maximum strength and

optimum swarf clearance.

In addition, all Alpha lathe beds are mounted on cast-

iron plinths to neutralise stress in the machine bed and

slideways are hardened and specially ground to ensure

high-precision, parallel operation of the lathe at all times.

operators ConsoleThe operator’s console is located, for optimum operator

convenience and efficiency, directly in line-of-sight with

the cutting tool. The hand wheels are installed at the ideal

ergonomic height for ease of use and have the Alpha’s

popular “one-click-one-micron” rotational feel sensitivity.

The complete operator’s control panel moves on its own

independent carriage which allows it to be moved quickly

and effortlessly aside during loading and setting up.


Market leading Performance A Century of Quality and ExcellenceStrength, reliability, versatility, ease of operation and accuracy have always been bywords for Colchester-Harrison lathes.

This pedigree comes from our continuous commitment to develop and enhance our world famous lathes. Today, advanced

new technologies are integrated into all Alpha lathes for market leading performance combined with our traditional build

quality and durability. In addition, the award winning Alpha 1550XM has the capability for milling as well as turning.

This innovative machine introduces an extra dimension especially for customers who have previously invested in separate

lathes and milling machines.

It adds up to a formula for lathe construction, which is second to none.

Drive TrainInto the design and development of all Alpha lathes

goes the technical expertise of specialists from

Colchester-Harrison’s partner companies, Gamet Bearings

and Pratt Burnerd chucking systems. Their combined

research programs ensure that all new Alpha X lathes

feature the most advanced developments in spindle bearing

technology and chuck design. This provides the highest

possible spindle speeds and optimum chuck performance

for high accuracy turning with maximum load carrying

capacity.

HeadstockCrucial to turning precision and quality is the design and

capability of the headstock. These lathes have top rated

Fanuc spindle motors for extra power and more torque in

all speed ranges. This means that ‘bottom end’ torque has

been increased by over 75% giving excellent, extremely

accurate metal-cutting performance at lower speeds.

All Alpha X Series lathes are equipped with gearboxes

enabling the correct gear to be selected from the lathe’s

control system.


Alpha XT Range - Fanuc oi Mate - TC All Alpha XT lathes are fitted with the latest Fanuc control available on the market today.

The Fanuc 0i Mate TC control gives you the option of manual or automatic operation and includes over 200 standard features

including Custom Macro B, Rigid Tapping and 256K Part Program Memory. This control will immediately increase your

productivity and will continue to do so year after year.

In manual mode it employs Fanuc’s latest version of Manual Programming Turn Mate i which is acclaimed to be the simplest

and most user friendly teach lathe control in the world.

In automatic mode we use Fanuc’s powerful CNC interface for the simple generation and execution of ISo programs.

The combination of these two systems on one machine means that the Alpha XT is the most capable lathe available in its class.

It will do virtually anything you ask of it!

op. Selection Screen The Turnmate i software contains a

full range of conversational cycles,

(profile, taper, thread, bore, drill, tap

etc.) and for the first time you can

program full contour machining at

the control. What’s more, the easy

to understand shop floor language

coupled with touch screen simplicity

means that any turner can learn to

machine parts quickly.

op. Execution ScreenWe use a touch screen so you can

work directly on screen rather than

spend time looking for the right

button to press. This system uses

easily recognisable screen graphics

along with simple question and

answer prompts to guide you.

During cycle execution, the current

cycle is clearly shown on the screen

along with speed, feed, tool and

axis positional information.

Data Input ScreenFor ease of programming cycle data

is input from a clearly defined input

screen with large text and symbols.

To retain continuity with previous

Alpha T controls, all cycles can be

used in semi manual mode (cut

depth selected by hand wheel) by

simply omitting the cut depth from

the cycle being used.

Most turners will learn how to use this system in less than half a day!

Profile ProgrammingComplex contours can be

easily produced using clear and

understandable icons. Contours are

generated using simple elements such

as line, arc and chamfer commands.

Tool SettingTool positions can be easily and

quickly set using simple to understand

icon driven input screens to assist

non-experienced operators.

ISo ProgrammingISo functionality (CNC) allows experienced operators to

run programs previously used on other machines and/

or generate new programs themselves. This allows the

8 station automatic turret to be offered as an option

enabling full automatic machining.

Alpha link CAD/CAM For The Alpha X Range All Alpha lathes are supplied with free

Alphalink CAD CAM software which

is a fully Windows compatible system

(previously only available as an extra

charge option) which is primarily

intended to increase the flexibility of the

lathe. Alphalink provides a simple yet

powerful CAD/CAM system for off-line

programming, G code outputting and

mass storage back up of programmes for

all our models. The software can also be

installed onto your own computer for use

in the office or home or link directly to

The Alpha System

Tool Settingon many lathes tool setting can be a difficult

and tedious process. With the Alpha things are

different and there is no lathe control on earth

that has a simpler tool setting procedure. Just

follow the instructions on three screens and

the job is done, with the machine automatically

calculating offsets and workshifts for you.

(These offsets will carry over to the manual

guide i side).

Semi-Automatic TurningWith the Colchester-Harrison Alpha System, a wealth of semi

automatic turning operations can be performed. These include

parallel turning to stop positions, chamfers and radii, tapers, threads,

grooves, box cycles and even contour shapes. These can be linked

together to produce even the most complex of components quickly

and efficiently.

What’s more, the easy to understand shop floor language coupled

with touch screen simplicity means that a turner can learn to machine

parts quickly.

Most turners will learn to use the Alpha System in less than

half a day!

one of the beauties of the Alpha System is that you are always in control

of the machine and you can manually overide machining at any time to

gain confidence or to hit the sweet spot for optimum performance.

Unique control software developed by our engineers to enable you to

double, triple or even quadruple your productivity compared with other

turning methods. The reason our Alpha System is so simple, practical

and shop floor friendly is that our engineers are lathe specialists.

Alpha System uses easily recognisable screen graphics along with

simple question and answer prompts to guide you. It is also the

reason that the Alpha System uses a touch screen, so you can work

directly on screen rather than hunt for the right button to press.

Manual TurningTurn the key and you are turning manually. It’s as

simple as that! The manual screen display shows

X and Z positions just like a DRO plus spindle

speed, tool number and feed rate.

Even if you haven’t used a lathe since your

schooldays you could walk up to an Alpha

X now and cut metal.

Manual Guide i for Alpha XSAutomatic TurningManual Guide i is the latest and most powerful

conversational programming system from Fanuc. It offers

the most comprehensive and feature laden aid that any

lathe programmer could want and becomes available on

the Alpha XS when the keyswitch on the control panel is

turned to the automatic position.

Simulation and AnimationManual Guide i has a more powerful graphics package

than many commercial CAD/CAM systems. After a

programme has been created, a simulated component can

be viewed in any direction, or as a 3D model that can be

cut or sectioned or magnified to see detail.

This simulated component can then be animated to show

the cutting process, the toolpath, metal removal and the

finished component to ensure that what you get is what

you have programmed and exactly what you want.

CNC TurningThe real strength of Manual Guide i is that it is effectively a

CNC Graphical user interface. All the time you are working

in Manual Guide i, the 21i TB is creating a CNC programme

in the background. This means that conversion from

conversational mode to CNC mode is instant. It also means

that you can work in either CNC or conversational mode

or even both at the same time. Furthermore it means that

industry standard CNC programmes can be loaded into

and out of the control at any time.

The Alpha XS is a powerful conversational lathe that can

also run CNC programmes developed elsewhere or to

create CNC programmes for use on other machines.

Customised PagesDespite the enormous strength of the Manual Guide

i system, our engineers have been able to bring their

turning experience into play to develop customised cycles

especially for the needs of a manual/CNC type of lathe.

These Colchester-Harrison developed cycles will save you a

considerable amount of time and button pushing.
