FORTUNE PACIFIC D1800B1100 18TONS MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The FORTUNE PACIFIC D1800B1100 is an 18-ton manual engine lathe engineered for heavy-duty industrial machining operations. This machine features an exceptionally large swing of 70.87 inches over the bed and 55.12 inches over the cross slide, enabling the processing of substantial workpieces. With 550.91 inches between centers, it accommodates extended workpiece lengths for complex turning and boring operations. The lathe is equipped with a 3.94-inch spindle bore and D1 camlock spindle nose configuration, providing versatility in chuck and tooling selection. Powered by a robust 65.77 HP motor at 220/440 volts, three-phase operation, the machine delivers significant cutting force for demanding production runs. Operating at 125 RPM, this geared-head design prioritizes torque over speed, making it ideal for high-material-removal applications and precision work on large-diameter components. The machine's one-piece cast iron construction with hardened and precision-ground bedway ensures superior rigidity and accuracy. At 48,501.58 lbs and measuring 311.02 x 89.76 x 94.88 inches, this lathe is designed for permanent installation in well-equipped manufacturing facilities. The combination of substantial spindle bore, extended center distance, and powerful motor makes this model suitable for aerospace, automotive, and heavy equipment component manufacturing, requiring precision work with materials ranging from steel to cast iron and specialized alloys.
