The JPW Industries GH-1640ZK 321850 is a manually operated, horizontal engine lathe designed for precision turning operations on medium-to-large workpieces. Featuring a robust 2-inch spindle bore and a single horizontal spindle rated at 7.5 horsepower, this machine delivers 1,800 RPM for consistent material removal across various applications. The lathe accommodates workpieces up to 8.94 inches in diameter and extends 40 inches in turning length, with a maximum swing capacity of 16 inches over the bed, enabling versatile machining of shafts, flanges, and complex geometries. The 8-inch main spindle chuck provides secure workholding, while the D1-8 spindle mount ensures compatibility with standard tooling. Equipped with a two-axis control system and slide-type primary tool carrier, the machine supports up to four turning tools with simultaneous engagement of a single cutting tool, optimizing productivity for production runs. The Z-axis travel extends 36.88 inches, facilitating longitudinal cutting operations and multiple passes without repositioning. With a 10-inch swing over the cross-slide and 61 available inch threading options distributed across 12 spindle speeds, this lathe accommodates diverse threading profiles and feed rates. The compact footprint of 91 x 42 x 49 inches suits small-to-medium job shops, while the manual operation provides experienced operators direct control over cutting parameters and part quality, making it ideal for prototype development, short-run production, and maintenance applications.
