ACER DYNAMIC 2280L MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The ACER Dynamic 2280L Manual Lathe is a high-precision engine lathe designed for heavy-duty machining tasks. It features a swing of 21.97 inches (560 mm) over the bed and 13.4 inches (340 mm) over the cross slide, accommodating large workpieces with a maximum distance between centers of 78.74 inches (2000 mm). The lathe is powered by a robust 10 HP motor, delivering speeds up to 1,500 RPM via a 3.3-inch (85 mm) spindle bore with MT7 taper, enabling versatile spindle speed control with multiple steps for optimized machining. The bed is constructed from thermally treated Meehanite casting, providing exceptional hardness and durability (HS70 rating) to maintain precision and minimize wear. The spindle features a D1-8 spindle nose and incorporates heat-treated, precision-ground alloy gears to enhance performance and longevity. The machine includes a universal gearbox offering inch and metric threading with a conversion chart, multiple automatic longitudinal feed stops, and an interlock system preventing simultaneous feed and threading operations for safety and accuracy. Standard accessories include a 12-inch D1-11 three-jaw chuck. Additional features include a tailstock with 6.5 inches spindle travel and 3.3-inch diameter, coolant pump, and foot brake. The lathe weighs approximately 6,393 lbs (2,900 kg) and measures 137 inches by 41 inches by 50 inches overall. Its versatile capabilities, combined with robust construction and precision components, make the ACER Dynamic 2280L an ideal choice for demanding workshop environments requiring reliable machining of large and complex components.
