AMCO CD6260C/2000 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The AMCO CD6260C/2000 manual lathe is a heavy-duty horizontal lathe designed for precision metalworking with a maximum swing over the bed of 23.5 inches and a substantial center distance of 78.5 inches, accommodating long workpieces up to 2000 mm (approximately 78.7 inches). It features a robust spindle bore of 3.14 inches (80 mm), allowing for machining of larger diameter materials. The lathe is powered by a 7.5 HP motor capable of spindle speeds up to 1,600 RPM, delivering strong and consistent machining performance. The swing over the cross slide is 14.15 inches, providing versatility in tooling and part sizes. This machine includes precision-ground gears for noise reduction, supports 66 thread types including metric, inch, module, and diametral pitch, and offers a tailstock with MT5 taper and 120 mm travel for added versatility. The cross slide travel measures approximately 305 mm, enabling substantial cutting depths and precision tool positioning. The lathe’s design emphasizes stability and durability with a heavy gap bed construction, allowing machining of parts with maximum size and complex shapes. Standard accessories include a 3-jaw chuck, steady/rest, faceplate, drive plate, tooling holders, and a coolant system to aid in efficient machining and longer tool life. The overall dimensions are approximately 4330 x 1400 x 2000 mm, weighing around 2130 kg, making it suitable for industrial workshop use. This lathe supports extensive turning, threading, facing, and drilling operations, making it a reliable solution for heavy manual metalworking tasks.
