Product Overview
Introducing Acra's 17"/24" x 43 Precision Gap Bed Engine Lathes, a high-quality machining solution manufactured in Taiwan. These lathes are designed to deliver exceptional performance, precision, and durability, making them an ideal choice for a wide range of turning applications across various industries.
Acra's 17"/24" x 43 Precision Gap Bed Engine Lathes are engineered for superior accuracy and reliability. The lathe's robust construction features a precision-ground spindle supported by three P-grade taper roller bearings, ensuring high rigidity and accuracy. The dynamically balanced, hardened, and precision-ground spindle features a D1-6 spindle nose and a generous 2-1/4" bore, accommodating a wide range of workpieces and tooling.
The universal gearbox, with oil bath lubrication and heat-treated gears, enables the cutting of inch, metric, module, and diametrical threads. The output shaft is designed with a safety pin for added protection. The headstock features chromium molybdenum steel gears that are segmentation treated and precision ground, ensuring optimal performance and longevity. A forced lubrication system keeps the gears well-lubricated for smooth operation.
The tailstock is equipped with a quill made from chromium molybdenum steel, which has undergone segmentation and precision grinding. With a 2-3/8" spindle and 6" of spindle travel, the tailstock provides ample support for longer workpieces.
