FOLLOW CE660X1500VCC MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The FOLLOW CE660X1500VCC is an electronic lathe designed for precision machining operations. This machine features a swing over bed of 660mm (25.98 inches) and a distance between centers of 1500mm (59.06 inches), making it suitable for medium-duty production work. The lathe offers a swing over ram of 820mm and a swing over carriage of 420mm, providing versatility in workpiece positioning and tool access. The machine is equipped with a main spindle bore of 40mm with 12 DP (diametral pitch) capacity, accommodating various spindle speeds for different machining requirements. The cross carriage travel spans 320mm, allowing adequate tool movement for facing, turning, and threading operations. The lathe supports modular pitches ranging from 1-14 and diametral pitches from 0.5-7, making it compatible with diverse gear-cutting and threading applications. The bedways feature supersonic frequency hardened and precision ground surfaces, ensuring superior accuracy and extended tool life. This construction enhances rigidity and dimensional stability during extended production runs. The electronic control system provides consistent spindle speed regulation and automatic feed mechanisms, reducing operator intervention and improving productivity. The CE660X1500VCC is ideal for small to medium manufacturing facilities, tool and die shops, and job shops requiring reliable parallel turning capabilities. Its robust construction, combined with precision ground components and electronic controls, delivers consistent performance for batch production of shafts, bushings, and other cylindrical components. The machine's moderate size and capabilities make it a practical investment for operations seeking efficiency without excessive floor space requirements.
