The Citizen R04 CNC automatic lathe is a high-precision machine tool, ideal for machining small, complex parts.

Renowned for its performance and compact design, it is widely used in industries such as watchmaking, medical devices, electronics and other precision fields. As specialist dealers, we regularly offer second-hand Citizen R04 machines, which have been carefully selected and reconditioned to ensure their quality and performance.
Citizen R04 CNC automatic lathe technical features
Thermal displacement control
The entire machine’s thermal displacement control is achieved through various methods. This includes integrating the tool table and ring guide, optimising motor power, and using the oil cooling method. These techniques make it possible to maintain constant precision even during longer operations, ensuring optimum machining quality.

Lightweight, high-performing spindle
The Citizen R04 spindle has been made significantly lighter and is approximately 25% smaller than those used in conventional machines. The reduced weight results in low vibrations and rapid acceleration, enabling a smooth rotation speed of 20,000 rpm. This high rotation speed is essential for producing small parts with rapidity and precision.
Compact ergonomic design
Through miniaturising the components and modifying their arrangement, the depth of the machine body is reduced to 535mm. This compact design means that the machine can be installed in smaller spaces, optimising the use of available factory space.
Advantages of the Citizen R04
High precision
With advanced thermal control technologies and a lightweight spindle, the Citizen R04 offers companies increased precision for machining small parts.
Production speed
The spindle’s high rotation speed and rapid acceleration result in efficient production, reducing cycle times and increasing productivity.
Space saving
The compact design is ideal for workshops with restricted space. The Citizen R04 is also a popular choice because it is easy to install and uses space optimally.
Second-hand Citizen R04 machines
At Scemama, we do not offer new models, but we regularly have second-hand Citizen R04 machines in stock. We carefully recondition all our second-hand machines to ensure their performance and reliability. Our technicians ensure that every machine is in excellent working order before it is listed for sale.
Buying a second-hand Citizen R04 machine from Scemama offers significant savings compared to buying new, without compromising on quality. With its compact design, various thermal control methods and lightweight spindle, the Citizen R04 CNC automatic lathe is an attractive choice for machining your complex parts.
