ACRA 26" X 120" MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The ACRA 26" x 120" manual lathe is a robust precision engine lathe designed for heavy-duty industrial turning operations. Featuring a 26-inch swing over bed with 120-inch distance between centers, this machine accommodates workpieces up to 35-1/8 inches in diameter within the gap bed configuration. The lathe is equipped with a D1-11 spindle nose and 4-inch spindle bore, providing excellent rigidity and precision for demanding applications. Its variable spindle speed ranges from 17 to 1,200 RPM across 12 speed settings, enabling versatile operation across diverse material types and cutting requirements. The machine supports both imperial threading from 2 to 56 TPI and metric threading from 0.5 to 14 mm, offering comprehensive threading capabilities. Powered by a 15 HP main motor operating at 230/460V AC three-phase, the lathe delivers substantial cutting force for production work. The MT NO.5 tailstock quill taper ensures precise tool positioning and repeatability. The precision ground, hardened bedways with 3V rail structure provide superior stability and extended service life during heavy cutting operations. The 17.5-inch swing over cross slide accommodates larger tooling arrangements, while the gap bed design enables machining of larger diameter components. Weighing 7,800 pounds with overall dimensions of 178 x 48 x 60 inches, this lathe combines substantial construction with operational versatility for tool rooms, job shops, and manufacturing facilities requiring reliable precision turning capabilities.
