Technical Description
The KAIDA C6140W/1000 Manual Lathe is a robust and versatile engine lathe designed for precision turning and heavy-duty machining applications. Featuring a hardened guide way construction, this lathe ensures high rigidity and long-term accuracy. The maximum swing over the bed is 16.54 inches (420mm), while the swing over the carriage is 8.66 inches (220mm), allowing for the machining of large-diameter workpieces. The distance between centers is 39.37 inches (1000mm), making it suitable for a wide range of part lengths. The spindle bore measures 2.20 inches (56mm), accommodating sizable bar stock, and features a Morse Taper No. 6 for secure tooling attachment. The lathe is powered by a 7.5kW (10.06 HP) main motor, delivering ample torque for demanding operations. Spindle speeds are infinitely variable from 9 to 1,600 RPM across 24 steps, enabling optimal cutting conditions for various materials and applications. The feed system offers a longitudinal feed range of 0.028–6.43 mm (0.0010–0.2392 inches) and a cross feed range of 0.012–2.73 mm (0.0004–0.1016 inches), ensuring precise control over machining parameters. Rapid traverse rates are 4,500 mm/min longitudinally and 1,900 mm/min crosswise, enhancing productivity. The tailstock sleeve has a Morse Taper No. 5 and a maximum travel of 150mm. The lathe supports metric, Whitworth, module, and D.P. thread cutting, with a total of 48 thread options for metric and Whitworth, 42 for module, and 45 for D.P. threads. The tool shank size is 25×25mm, and the cross slide and compound rest offer maximum travels of 320mm and 145mm, respectively. The overall dimensions are 2,500×1,000×1,285mm, with a net weight of 2,550kg.
