EMCO EMCOMAT 17D MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The EMCO EMCOMAT 17D is a robust manual lathe designed for precision and industrial use. It features a 13.4-inch swing with a 27.6-inch distance between centers and a 2.0-inch (50 mm) spindle bore, accommodating a wide range of workpieces. The lathe is powered by a 7.1 HP motor with an electronically controlled spindle speed up to 3,000 RPM, offering infinitely variable speed control and constant cutting speed functionality for efficient machining. The machine's swing over the cross slide is 7.5 inches, enabling versatile turning operations. Its construction includes a diagonally ribbed, induction-hardened, and ground machine bed with three-point support, ensuring rigidity and vibration resistance. Guideways, gears, and shafts are hardened and ground for durability and precision. The spindle brake is electromechanical, contributing to safety and control during operation. Dimensions of the EMCOMAT 17D measure 65.0 inches in length, 41.7 inches in width, and 64.4 inches in height, with an overall weight of approximately 1,664.5 lbs (755 kg). It is equipped with advanced ergonomic features, including a high-tech 3-axis digital display with a resolution of 0.001 mm for accurate position readouts on X, Z, and Zo axes. The system supports up to 999 tool positions and includes a 4-position turret for enhanced machining flexibility. This lathe integrates a rigid, divided lead spindle cover and an easy-to-operate interface, making it suitable for demanding manufacturing environments requiring precision and repeatability.
