ACER DYNAMIC 22160L MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The ACER Dynamic 22160L manual lathe is a heavy-duty precision engine lathe designed for large-scale turning operations. It features a **21.97-inch swing over the bed** and **13.39 inches swing over the cross slide**, supporting workpieces up to **157.52 inches between centers**, enabling machining of long shafts and large diameters. The lathe incorporates a **3.30-inch spindle bore** with an optional D1-11 spindle nose standard, accommodating substantial bar stock sizes. It is powered by a **10.06 HP motor**, delivering robust torque for heavy cutting, with spindle speeds ranging from **15 to 1,500 RPM** across multiple steps, assuring versatility across various materials and cutting conditions. Constructed with a thermally treated Meehanite cast iron bed achieving hardness of HS70, it offers exceptional stability and vibration damping for precision machining. The lathe’s carriage assembly includes a compound rest travel of approximately 200 mm and a cross slide travel of 375 mm for flexible tool positioning. A tailstock with 165 mm spindle travel and MT 5 taper supports drilling and reaming operations, increasing functionality. The ACER Dynamic 22160L lathe is equipped with a precision universal gearbox for broad thread cutting capability (inch and metric), automatic feed options interlocked with threading functions to prevent conflict, and available digital readout systems ("Magnescale" or "Newall" 2-axis DRO) for enhanced accuracy. Overall dimensions are roughly 219 inches length by 41 inches width, suitable for heavy industrial environments requiring reliable, accurate, and efficient turning of large components.
