WRC30 Wheel CNC Lathe Machine — high-power CNC lathe for professional alloy wheel diamond-cut refurbishment up to 30 inches

The WRC30 is the top-specification horizontal-spindle CNC wheel lathe in the Inovatec range. Powered by an 11 kW motor on a whole cast iron base, it handles alloy wheels up to 30 inches in diameter and is built for workshops where throughput, motor power and long-term structural stability are the primary requirements. The 15″ 3-jaw chuck with special soft jaws accommodates large-diameter wheels comfortably; the automatic spindle speed control (50–1600 rpm) adjusts cutting parameters between passes without operator input.

Like the WRC28, the WRC30 ships with a ruby digital probe, Taiwan new-generation CNC system and dedicated hub curve optimisation software. The probe automatically reads the wheel surface profile, converts it to G-code, and the machine executes the cutting program — 0.05 mm per pass, repeated as needed — without manual programming. At 3500 kg, the WRC30 is a production machine; its mass and cast iron base eliminate the vibration and chatter that reduce cut quality and tool life on lighter machines processing large-diameter rims.

  • 11 kW motor — the most powerful in the Inovatec wheel lathe range
  • 30″ maximum wheel size — covers passenger car, SUV and light commercial fitments
  • 15″ 3-jaw chuck with soft jaws — secure clamping for large alloy wheels
  • Whole cast iron base, 3500 kg — vibration-free cuts at full capacity
  • Ruby probe + hub optimisation software — no-programming DC refurbishment workflow

How the WRC30 machines a wheel

The ruby digital probe reads the alloy wheel surface profile automatically. The profile is converted to G-code; the cutting program runs without manual operator programming. Each diamond-cut pass removes 0.05 mm from the wheel face. Two to three passes typically achieve the target finish.

StepWhat happens
1. MountWheel clamped on 15″ 3-jaw chuck with soft jaws
2. ProbeRuby probe detects wheel surface geometry; profile stored and converted to G-code automatically
3. CutDiamond cutter makes 0.05 mm passes; 2–3 passes to achieve target diamond-cut surface
4. Store profileWheel profile saved to machine database — next time the same model is processed, setup is faster
5. LacquerWheel moves to spray booth for clear lacquer protection (separate equipment)

Who the WRC30 is built for

High-volume alloy wheel refurbishment facilities — the 11 kW motor, 3500 kg cast iron base and automatic spindle control are sized for continuous production, not occasional use. The machine stores wheel profiles; recurring models process faster with each subsequent run as the database grows.

Shops regularly processing large or heavy wheels — the 30″ capacity, 15″ chuck and higher motor power are necessary for reliably machining the large-diameter SUV, light commercial and performance vehicle wheels where a 7.5 kW machine would be under-powered at full diameter.

Operations prioritising long-term build quality — at 3500 kg, the WRC30 is built to run without flex, vibration or structural fatigue over years of production use. The 1-year parts warranty with free replacement shipping and lifetime technical support reflect Inovatec’s standard service commitment.

WRC30 Wheel CNC Lathe – FAQs

1. Why does the WRC30 need an 11 kW motor when the WRC28 uses 7.5 kW?
Cutting torque requirements scale with wheel diameter and material mass. At 30 inches, the wheel face is significantly larger than at 28 inches, and many wheels in this size class — SUV rims, light commercial wheels — are heavier than standard passenger car alloys. The 11 kW motor provides the torque headroom needed to maintain consistent cutting conditions across the full face without speed drop-off, which is what produces a uniform surface finish.
2. How does the ruby probe work, and does the operator need to do any programming?
The ruby digital probe touches the wheel surface at multiple points to map the actual face geometry. This data is fed into the hub curve optimisation software, which generates the G-code cutting program automatically. The operator powers on the machine, clamps the wheel, initiates the probe cycle and confirms the cut — no manual G-code writing at any stage. Once a wheel model has been profiled, the data is stored; repeat jobs run faster.
3. How many passes does it take to produce a diamond-cut finish?
Typically 2–3 passes at 0.05 mm per pass. The first pass (rough cut) removes the damaged surface layer, corrosion and old lacquer. The second pass brings the surface to near-finish condition. A final finishing pass with the diamond cutter produces the bright-machined DC surface. Heavily damaged wheels may need an additional rough-cut pass before finishing.
4. What does the warranty cover, and what is lifetime technical support?
The 1-year warranty covers parts that fail during normal operation within the warranty period; Inovatec replaces them free of charge with free shipping. Lifetime technical support means the Inovatec support team remains available for technical questions — operation, troubleshooting, tooling advice — for the life of the machine, not just during warranty. On-site training at the Inovatec facility is also available for engineering staff.
5. What power supply and installation requirements does the WRC30 need?
The 11 kW motor requires a three-phase supply; voltage confirmed at order stage. The machine footprint is 2430×1730 mm and net weight is 3500 kg. Floor loading capacity, access for fork-lift or crane installation, and three-phase supply availability should all be confirmed during pre-purchase planning. Contact us for a full installation checklist.
6. Can the WRC30 repair structurally bent wheels?
No. The WRC30 is a surface machining lathe. It machines the wheel face to restore finish and profile. Structural damage — bent flanges, cracked spokes, impact deformation — must be corrected with a hydraulic wheel straightening press before the wheel is loaded onto the lathe.
7. What cutting inserts are compatible with the WRC30?
The 4-station quick-change tool post accepts standard 25×25 mm tooling. PCD (polycrystalline diamond) inserts are used for the final DC finishing pass; DCMT and VCMT carbide inserts are used for roughing. Both can be sourced from any compatible tooling supplier. Diamond inserts are included in the standard configuration.
8. Do you provide export packing and documentation?
Yes. We handle standard export packing and shipping documentation for delivery to 60+ countries. Operation manual, tooling, soft jaws and training materials are supplied with the machine. Contact us to confirm lead time and freight options for your destination.
