The CNC Wheel Lathe is a rugged and reliable wheel lathe designed and manufactured 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 re-cuts the wheel profile to pre-programmed specifications. All operations can be initiated by a pushbutton control from the operator's control pendant..
