KAAST MACHINE TOOLS D-TURN HD560/2000 MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The KAAST MACHINE TOOLS D-Turn HD560/2000 is a heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for precision and durability in demanding industrial environments. Featuring a robust FC-30 cast iron bed with strong ribbing, the machine minimizes vibrations and ensures long-term accuracy. The lathe offers a 43.5-inch swing and 78.0-inch center-to-center distance, making it suitable for large and heavy workpieces. The spindle bore measures 5.9 inches, accommodating sizable bar stock, while the A2-11 spindle mount provides secure tooling attachment. Powered by a 30.0 HP motor, the D-Turn HD560/2000 delivers a spindle speed range up to 420 RPM, supporting a wide variety of turning operations. The X-axis travel is 600 mm, and the Z-axis travel matches the center distance, allowing for extended machining capabilities. Guideways are case-hardened and ground for lasting precision, and the X and Z axes are coated with Turcite B to reduce friction and extend machine life. The lathe is equipped with a 3-axis digital readout (DRO) for accurate positioning and rapid traverse on both X and Z axes. The transmission gears and shafts are made from hardened and ground high-alloy steel, operating in an oil bath for smooth performance and longevity. The tailstock quill diameter is Ø115 mm, with a travel/taper suitable for heavy-duty support. Weighing 18,260 lbs, the D-Turn HD560/2000 is built for stability and reliability, making it ideal for heavy-duty machining applications requiring high precision and robust construction.
