J&M TL1480T MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The J&M TL1480T is a heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for precision machining of large workpieces. This machine features a maximum swing over bed of 1480 mm (58.3 inches), enabling operators to work with substantially sized components. The spindle bore measures Φ130 mm (5.1 inches), accommodating various tool holders and workpiece configurations with metric 140# taper compatibility. The lathe accommodates a maximum workpiece weight of 10 tons, making it suitable for industrial production environments. The swing over cross slide reaches 1000 mm (39.4 inches), providing ample clearance for complex turning operations. Available center distances span from 2m to 12m, allowing configuration flexibility for different project requirements. Operating specifications include spindle speeds ranging from 3.15 to 315 r/min with 21 forward and 12 reverse gear selections. The longitudinal feed range offers 56 different settings from 0.1 to 12 mm, while cross feed delivers 56 variations from 0.05 to 6 mm, ensuring precise dimensional control. Rapid feed capabilities reach 3400 mm/min longitudinally and 1700 mm/min laterally. The machine is powered by a 30 kW main motor, with additional motors driving coolant circulation (150W), rapid feed (1.5 kW), and tailstock functions (1.5 kW). The compound rest and cross slide allow 280 mm and 860 mm travel respectively, while the tailstock quill extends 300 mm with Φ260 mm diameter and metric 80# taper. This configuration establishes the TL1480T as a versatile, production-grade lathe for demanding manufacturing applications.
