ACER E-LATHE 32160V MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The ACER E-Lathe 32160V is a precision geared head engine lathe designed for heavy-duty manual machining operations. This machine features a 32-inch swing capacity over the bed with 157.5 inches of center distance, enabling the processing of large workpieces with extended lengths. The 4.5-inch spindle bore accommodates substantial cutting tools and work-holding devices, while the 23.3-inch swing over the cross slide provides additional clearance for complex geometries. Powered by a 15 HP motor, the lathe delivers robust cutting performance with a maximum spindle speed of 1,000 RPM, suitable for precision finishing and heavy roughing operations on various materials. The E-Series construction incorporates a geared head spindle system that ensures consistent torque delivery across all speed ranges, enhancing surface finish quality and tool life. Standard features include an integrated coolant system for efficient chip evacuation and temperature management, multiple threading and feeding capabilities for both metric and inch systems, and a four-way tool post for rapid tool changes. The machine's substantial bed width and rigid construction minimize deflection during demanding cuts, while the variable speed capability allows operators to optimize spindle speeds for different materials and tool geometries. This versatile lathe is ideal for job shops, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities requiring reliable performance on mid to large-sized components.
