HANKOOK HPL-900/6000 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The HANKOOK HPL-900/6000 is a heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for precision machining of large workpieces. This machine features a 35.4-inch swing diameter, enabling the accommodation of substantial cylindrical components, while its impressive 236.3-inch center distance provides extended capacity for long shaft and cylindrical work. The 3.3-inch spindle bore allows for flexible tooling options and accommodates various workpiece configurations. Powered by a robust 20.0 horsepower motor, the lathe delivers consistent cutting force and material removal rates suitable for demanding production environments. Operating at 1,120 RPM, this lathe emphasizes torque-intensive cutting operations over high-speed finishing, making it ideal for heavy roughing passes and rigid workholding scenarios. The manual control configuration provides operators with direct mechanical feedback and precise command over feed rates and threading operations, essential for skilled machining work. This model is particularly suited for job shops, tool and die operations, and manufacturing facilities requiring reliable performance on large-diameter components. The combination of substantial swing capacity, extended center distance, and powerful spindle motor makes the HPL-900/6000 a versatile choice for processing large forgings, castings, and steel components. Its manual nature ensures operator familiarity remains paramount, though the machine's robust construction and proven design deliver years of dependable service in industrial settings.
