FORTUNE PACIFIC C400A MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The FORTUNE PACIFIC C400A is a precision bench lathe constructed from high tensile cast iron in a rigid, robust structure designed for reliable performance in machining operations. This manually-operated machine tool features a 15.75-inch swing over bed capacity, enabling workpieces up to that diameter to be accommodated. The machine provides a 39.96-inch center distance between spindle and tailstock, offering substantial longitudinal working length for extended turning operations. The spindle bore measures 2.05 inches, accommodating standard machine tool accessories and work-holding devices. Powered by a 2.95 HP motor operating at 1,800 RPM, the lathe delivers consistent rotational speed for precision machining tasks. The swing over cross slide is 9.84 inches, permitting adequate radial clearance for tool positioning and workpiece manipulation. With a total weight of 1,607.79 pounds, the machine provides the mass necessary for vibration dampening and operational stability during cutting operations. The C400A features precision ground components and advanced construction techniques that enhance machining accuracy and tool life. This manual lathe is suitable for general-purpose turning, facing, threading, and boring applications in job shop and production environments. The combination of cast iron construction, adequate spindle power, and practical work envelope specifications makes the C400A a versatile machine tool for small to medium-sized components requiring precision turning operations.
