CLAUSING 13VS HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

Technical Description

The Clausing 13VS is a precision horizontal engine lathe engineered for versatile turning operations. This two-axis machine features a robust 13.75" swing over bed capacity with a maximum turning diameter of 7.75" and adjustable center distance options up to 50". The spindle incorporates a D1-4 camlock nose with 3MT taper, delivering 10 horsepower at a maximum speed of 3,250 RPM with infinitely variable speed control across three ranges (15-340, 45-1010, and 150-3,250 RPM). The 1.65" spindle bore accommodates standard tooling for efficient material removal. The cross-slide provides 9.8" of longitudinal travel with feed ranges from 0.014-0.048 in/rev, while the carriage offers 5.5" of cross-slide travel with variable feed capabilities from 0.0007-0.024 in/rev for precise finishing operations. The tailstock features a 2.48" diameter quill with 4MT taper and 5.5" of travel. Threading capabilities include 56 inch pitches (2-56 TPI) and 20 metric pitches (0.2-14mm), accommodating diverse production requirements. The machine operates on 230/460V, 3-phase power and weighs approximately 3,300 lbs, providing substantial rigidity for accurate turning work. With its slide-mounted tool carrier configuration and single-spindle design, this lathe excels in small to medium production runs requiring reliable, consistent performance in both ferrous and non-ferrous material machining.
