JET EGH-1760 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The JET EGH-1760 is a robust geared head manual lathe engineered for heavy-duty turning applications. Featuring a 17-inch swing over the bed and 60 inches between centers, this lathe accommodates large workpieces with precision and stability. The 3.125-inch spindle bore allows for the passage of substantial stock, while the 7.5 HP, 230/460V 3-phase motor delivers consistent power for demanding operations. The lathe achieves a maximum spindle speed of 1,800 RPM, supporting a wide range of machining requirements. With a swing over the cross slide of 11 inches, the machine provides ample clearance for tooling and workpiece manipulation. The overall dimensions are 114 inches in length, 44 inches in width, and 68 inches in height, and it weighs 4,078 lbs, ensuring exceptional rigidity and vibration damping during operation. Hardened and ground bedways, Meehanite castings, and precision-engineered components contribute to long-term accuracy and durability. The enclosed full-length splash guard, front-facing chip pan, and nylon safety gears enhance operator safety and ease of maintenance. One-shot lubrication in the carriage and a shear pin in the lead screw protect the machine from overload damage. The EGH-1760 is designed for reliability, high-quality output, and ease of use in industrial environments, making it a versatile solution for precision turning tasks.
