CLAUSING MAV26118 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The CLAUSING MAV26118 is a manual 3-speed variable-speed engine lathe designed for toolroom and production applications. This machine features a robust 26.7-inch swing over bed with 118-inch distance between centers, enabling the machining of large cylindrical workpieces. The lathe accommodates a 4.125-inch spindle bore with an A2-11 camlock spindle nose, providing versatile tooling compatibility. With a 17.3-inch swing over the cross slide and a 15.37-inch cross slide travel, the MAV26118 delivers precision capability for diverse turning operations. The machine operates at speeds up to 1,000 RPM with variable-speed control, offering flexibility for different materials and cutting conditions. Powered by a 15 HP motor at 230/460V, 3-phase operation, it provides sufficient torque for both roughing and finishing cuts. The 18-inch bed width supports stability during heavy-duty machining tasks. The compound slide travel of 9.5 inches facilitates precision angular cuts and threading operations. A 7-foot-2-inch gap length allows for workpiece setup without bed removal. The lathe includes a comprehensive threading capability, supporting 36 inch threads and 65 metric threads, making it suitable for precision work requiring tight tolerances. Its manual operation combined with variable-speed capability makes the MAV26118 an economical choice for job shops and educational institutions requiring reliable, durable machinery for metal cutting and shaping applications.
