CHAMPION ENGINEERING IV MANUAL LATHE

The CHAMPION ENGINEERING IV is a precision manual lathe designed for versatile machining applications in industrial and educational settings. This center lathe features a swing capacity of 19.63 inches over the bed, enabling operators to machine workpieces of substantial diameter with excellent control and accuracy. The machine accommodates a maximum distance between centers of 39.29 inches, providing adequate length for turning and threading operations on extended components. Equipped with a 2.04-inch spindle bore, this lathe accepts standard tooling and workholding accessories, facilitating compatibility with conventional lathe chucks and centers. The spindle bore diameter accommodates typical morse taper or similar quick-change tool interfaces, allowing for efficient tool changeovers during production runs. Constructed from cast iron, the CHAMPION ENGINEERING IV delivers the rigidity and thermal stability essential for maintaining dimensional precision during machining operations. The heavy-duty construction ensures durability during repetitive cutting cycles and extends service life under continuous industrial use. Manual operation provides operators with direct control over spindle speed, feed rates, and tool positioning, making this lathe suitable for job shop environments and educational institutions where flexibility and operator skill development are priorities. The machine is built for high precision work with efficient operation capabilities, offering reliable performance across versatile applications including turning, facing, threading, and boring operations. Its cost-effective design makes it an attractive option for facilities requiring dependable manual machining capabilities without the expense of fully automated CNC systems. The CHAMPION ENGINEERING IV represents a proven solution for classical metalworking and production requirements.
