Technical Description
The ACRA FEL 1767G manual lathe is a precision-engineered machine designed for versatile turning operations with robust construction and advanced features. It offers a 17-inch swing over the bed and a maximum distance between centers of 67 inches, providing ample workspace for large parts. The spindle features a 2.25-inch bore and a D1-6 spindle nose, supported by three precision P-grade taper roller bearings for stability and precision. Powered by a 7.5-horsepower motor, the lathe achieves spindle speeds up to 2,000 RPM across 12 speed settings, enabling a wide range of machining applications.
Its bed and stand are made from Meehanite cast iron, vibration stress-relieved, induction-hardened to HS70 degrees, and precision ground to ensure durability and accuracy. The precision hand-scraped removable gap accommodates larger diameters. The universal gearbox offers oil bath lubrication and heat-treated, precision-ground chromium molybdenum steel gears, allowing threading in inch, metric, module, and diametrical pitch formats.
The tailstock includes a 2 3/8-inch diameter quill with 6 inches of travel, made from hardened chromium molybdenum steel, ensuring precision tooling support. The apron and saddle feature manual and automatic lubrication systems with overload protection and hardened, precision-ground cross slide screws for smooth, accurate feed.
Standard accessories typically include a 10-inch 3-jaw chuck, 12-inch 4-jaw chuck, steady rest, 4-way tool holder, coolant system, halogen light, and full-length splash guard, making this lathe suitable for high-precision manufacturing and prototyping in demanding industrial environments. The lathe weighs approximately 4,200 to 4,750 lbs and operates on 220/440V AC power, 3-phase.
