Not that I've found, certainly not from any of the established companies.
Mazak smallest Quick Turn has a 5.5Kw/7.5hp spindle with 32mm through spindle.
Haas OL-1 is still 5.5Kw, but with only a 25mm through.
One option may be this - Small CNC Lathe with 8 position "Automatic Tool Changer" - YouTube
But I don't know what Fadec's plans are with actually finalising and selling them.
The other option is Tormach's new lathe, which the first batch are pretty much finished, but it's still a slideway/dovetail design. It seems the smaller end of the market just point blank refuses to embrace linear slides :-/
