The FAT HACO FCTS 900 is a powerful turning centre designed for manufacturers who require substantial machining capacity without compromising on accuracy, flexibility or performance.

At Leader CNC Technologies, we are proud to provide U.K manufacturers with access to this impressive technology, offering a machine solution designed to meet the demands of modern, high-performance manufacturing.

The FCTS 900 has been engineered around a rigid cast-iron construction and specialist slant-bed design, providing a stable platform for demanding machining applications. With a 900 mm swing, the machine offers an impressive working envelope while maintaining efficient chip removal and excellent operator access.

Versatility for Demanding Applications

What makes the FCTS 900 particularly interesting is its versatility. Depending on the configuration, the machine can incorporate Y-axis capability, driven tooling, C-axis, hydraulic steady rests and a B-axis milling head.

This allows manufacturers to combine turning and milling operations within a single machine, reducing the need for multiple setups and providing greater flexibility when machining complex components.

With spindle options including 140 mm and 220 mm bore, up to 3,500 Nm of turning torque, and workpiece capacities of up to 4,500 kg between centres, the FCTS 900 is built for serious production environments.

More Than a Conventional CNC Lathe

FAT HACO has developed the FCTS 900 as a highly configurable machining solution rather than simply a conventional CNC lathe.

Its configuration can incorporate a 12-position tool turret, driven tooling and Y-axis capability, opening up the possibility of carrying out a wider range of machining operations within a single setup.

For manufacturers working with larger, heavier or more complex components, this flexibility can help simplify production processes while improving overall machining capability.

A Solution for U.K Manufacturers

For U.K manufacturers looking to increase their machining capability, consolidate operations or take on more demanding components, the FCTS 900 offers a compelling combination of size, rigidity, flexibility and machining performance.

At Leader CNC Technologies, we can discuss the range of available configurations and help identify the right specification for your individual application.
