HANKOOK PROTEC-750B/2000 MANUAL LATHE

The HANKOOK PROTEC-750B/2000 is a heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for precision machining of large workpieces and oil country applications. This machine features a 750mm (29.5-inch) swing over bed, enabling machining of substantial cylindrical components, paired with a generous 2000mm (78.0-inch) center distance for extended workpiece lengths. The lathe incorporates a large spindle bore of 172mm (6.8 inches), accommodating various tool holders and chuck configurations while facilitating through-hole machining capabilities. Powered by a 15.0 HP motor driving the spindle at 900 RPM, the PROTEC-750B/2000 delivers sufficient torque for demanding cutting operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The machine features hardened and ground bed ways and tailstock spindle, ensuring dimensional stability and repeatability over extended service life. A 2-speed tailstock spindle provides operational flexibility for different machining requirements, while metric/inch threading capability via lever change accommodates diverse production specifications. The 500mm (19.7-inch) wide, high-quality cast iron bed contributes to rigid construction and vibration dampening during heavy cuts. Additional features include auto forced lubrication systems, electromagnetic spindle brake for operator safety, and safety devices positioned on all moving areas. Designed for manual operation, this lathe suits toolrooms, job shops, and production environments where precision and reliability are essential for specialized turning operations on large-diameter workpieces.
