The Nuova PTM CNE/S live centre is a professional solution for turning and finishing operations on conventional lathes, centre lathes and CNC machines where stable, accurate and reliable workpiece support is required. The standard version with integrated point is suitable for medium-duty applications where rigidity, precision, durability and cost efficiency are all important.

The compact and rigid external body allows the live centre to operate with good stability even during continuous machining cycles, helping to reduce vibration and deflection while supporting the rotating workpiece. The point geometry provides secure centring of the component, keeping the workpiece correctly aligned during light roughing, turning, finishing and secondary machining operations.

The CNE/S series is equipped with the WPS - Water Protection System, designed to protect the internal components from dust, chips and coolant penetration. This protection is especially important in modern machining environments, where coolant is often used continuously and abrasive particles can affect the smoothness and precision of the live centre over time.

The internal assembly uses a carefully engineered bearing and thrust bearing system mounted in ground seats, protected by oil seals and lubricated with permanent grease. This configuration allows the live centre to support the workpiece during rotation while maintaining smooth running and good axial and radial load capacity, depending on the selected model. Permanent internal grease lubrication reduces routine maintenance and makes the product suitable for daily workshop use.

During the first working hours, a slight grease leakage may occur. This is a normal effect caused by the settling of the internal lubrication. Under regular operating conditions, the live centre does not require frequent maintenance, although periodic inspection is recommended according to the intensity of use, working environment and exposure to coolant, dust or chips. During operation, the external temperature may exceed 60°C, which should be considered normal under working conditions.

The Nuova PTM CNE/S live centre is suitable for machine shops, turning departments, industrial maintenance, production areas and toolrooms that require a robust and accurate component for machining shafts, pins, bushings, cylindrical parts and turned mechanical components. The Morse taper of choice allows adaptation to different machine tools, making the CNE/S series a versatile solution for many lathe configurations.

Thanks to its balance between performance, service life and price, this live centre is an effective choice for users looking for a professional, reliable accessory suitable for medium-duty machining, while maintaining the manufacturing quality associated with Nuova PTM products.
