ACER DYNAMIC 3240L MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The ACER DYNAMIC 3240L is a precision engine lathe engineered for heavy-duty industrial turning operations. With a generous 32-inch swing over bed capacity, this machine accommodates large workpieces while maintaining exceptional accuracy through hardened and ground bed ways. The 39.4-inch distance between centers enables extended workpiece lengths, making it suitable for complex multi-operation projects requiring significant spindle travel. Powered by a robust 15 HP motor, the lathe delivers consistent torque for aggressive cutting operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 4.5-inch spindle bore accommodates large-diameter tooling and workpiece mounting configurations, providing versatility for specialized applications. Operating at 1,000 RPM, the machine balances cutting speed optimization with surface finish quality across varying material specifications. The 23.3-inch swing over cross slide facilitates efficient tool positioning and chip evacuation during complex operations. The precision ground cross-slideways and compound rest mechanisms enable precise dimensional control essential for production accuracy. Threading and feeding systems support both inch and metric measurements, featuring pitch ranges from 3 to 56 TPI for inch threads and 0.25 to 6mm for metric threads. Safety features include a 24-volt control circuit, overload protection device, and forward/stop/reverse lever for operator control. The machine's 2,244-pound net weight and rigid triangular bed web construction minimize vibration, ensuring superior surface finishes and tool life. This manual lathe represents an ideal platform for job shops and manufacturing facilities requiring dependable precision turning capabilities with substantial workpiece capacity.
