ACME LATHE EXD/5 MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The ACME LATHE EXD/5 is a manual engine lathe designed for versatile machining tasks, featuring a maximum swing capacity of 31.1 inches, allowing it to handle large workpieces effectively. It supports a between-centers length of 114.2 inches, providing ample length for extended turning operations. The spindle bore diameter is 3.1 inches, facilitating the passage of sizable bars or workpieces through the spindle for through-tooling or deep machining. Operating at a maximum spindle speed of 500 RPM, it is suitable for heavy-duty and precision metal cutting that requires controlled speed. The swing over cross slide measures 19.7 inches, enabling machining on parts with sizable cross-sectional areas over the tool post. This lathe’s specifications indicate a robust build, ideal for workshop environments requiring medium to large-size turning capacities with manual control for precision and versatility in shaping, facing, and threading operations. The combination of large centers, significant swing, and a moderately powerful spindle speed make the ACME LATHE EXD/5 fit for diverse industrial applications, including general fabrication, mold making, and maintenance machining.
