Description

This 1995 Clausing Colchester Tornado 200 package comes complete with an integrated Fanuc 0-T control panel, a full 12-station VDI indexing disc configuration, and a programmable hydraulic tailstock assembly. The machine is constructed on robust, hardened slant-bed linear ways and cross-slide surfaces that remain visually clean, carrying a normal light surface oil film free of deep scoring, gouges, or rust pitting. While the external sheet metal enclosure exhibits typical mid-90s paint flaking and cosmetic wear around the base and lower splash guard panels from water-soluble coolant use, it retains its durable workhorse build. Note that the spindle nose setup is currently bare without a chuck or collet actuator, making it ready for the buyer's choice of workholding, and the spindle assembly itself requires a bearing rebuild due to noisy operation.

Key Features & Benefits
Equipped with a programmable hydraulic tailstock unit on the lower ways, this machine easily transitions from short chucking work to long shaft and bar-fed turning projects between centers. The lower control panel features dedicated hardware buttons for CHUCK ENABLE and T.STK ENABLE alongside an analog spindle load meter calibrated to 150% for direct monitoring of the 20 HP motor. Operator controls are sharp and legible, with the GE Fanuc Series 0-T keypad buttons showing very minimal plastic degradation or text wear. For system monitoring and troubleshooting, twin analog pressure dials are mounted on the upper left bulkhead to trace hydraulic chucking and system pressure. Additionally, this package includes an invaluable, brand-new standalone Duplomatic BSV-N series electromechanical drive housing in its factory crate, serving as a direct mechanical drop-in match for the core casting inside the enclosure.
