KAAST MACHINE TOOLS C-TURN 200/1000 MANUAL LATHE

The KAAST Machine Tools C-Turn 200/1000 manual lathe is a precision-engineered engine lathe designed for heavy-duty and accurate metal turning applications. It features a **swing capacity of 15.5 inches (approximately 390 mm)** over the bed and a **distance between centers of 39 inches (1000 mm)**, allowing work on medium-sized shafts and components. The lathe is equipped with a **2.2-inch (56 mm) spindle bore**, facilitating versatility in spindle through-hole diameter for various workpieces. Powered by a **7.5 horsepower motor**, the spindle delivers speeds up to **2,000 RPM**, controlled through an all-gear headstock made from chrome molybdenum alloy steel, which ensures durability and precision. Its bed includes **hardened, precision-ground guideways** for exceptional stability, accuracy, and low noise during machining. The lathe supports multiple threading types—including metric, Whitworth, module, and diametral threads—using a universal gearbox without needing to change gears, enhancing flexibility. The tailstock is robust with a hardened and graduated, precision-ground quill, allowing for accurate positioning and drilling along the 39-inch bed. Optional features commonly include a 3-axis digital readout, coolant system, work light, splash guard, and safety chuck guard to improve operator efficiency and safety. The compact size combined with KAAST’s optimized structural design ensures high stability under heavy cutting and extended use, making the C-Turn 200/1000 ideal for workshop or production environments that require reliable manual lathe performance.
