HARRISON LATHE V550 HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The Harrison V550 is a heavy-duty manual centre lathe engineered for precision turning operations in demanding industrial applications. This machine features a 554mm (21.8") swing over the bed, accommodating workpieces up to 14.5" in diameter, with a maximum turning length of 120" between centers available in 2000mm or 3000mm configurations. The lathe incorporates a robust D1-11 camlock spindle nose with a 90-104mm bore, enabling versatile tooling compatibility. Operating at speeds ranging from 18-1800 RPM across three gear ranges, the V550 delivers 11 kW of spindle motor power for reliable cutting performance. The machine's structural design utilizes double-race front roller bearings and single-race rear bearings set to fixed pre-load, ensuring exceptional stiffness and maintaining stability and accuracy across all speeds, loads, and temperatures. Additional features include a 10" chuck diameter, swing over the cross-slide of 370mm, and a swing in the gap of 830mm, providing flexibility for complex geometries. The center height of 280mm allows convenient workpiece loading and tool access. Equipped with a quick-change toolpost, fixed and travelling steadies, coolant system, and DRO (Digital Readout) capabilities, the V550 is ideally suited for aerospace, automotive, and defense sectors requiring precision machining of aluminum, steel, and composite materials.
