KENT INDUSTRIAL USA, INC. RML-1440VT HORIZONTAL MACHINING CENTER

The KENT INDUSTRIAL USA, INC. RML-1440VT is a precision horizontal machining center built for versatile turning operations. It features a **main spindle with a maximum turning diameter of 8.370" and a turning length capacity of 40"**, supported by a **maximum swing over bed of 14.19"** and a gap swing of 21" for handling larger workpieces. The spindle bore measures 2.060", allowing bar stock up to this diameter. Powered by a **5 HP motor with AC frequency drive**, it provides infinitely variable spindle speeds from 20 to 2,500 RPM, displayed digitally for precise speed control. The spindle is dynamically balanced, uses a hardened, ground steel construction, and includes a robust taper MT#6 for tooling. Operated manually with **2 axes**, it supports a single simultaneous cutting tool. The machine’s cast iron bed and base deliver rigidity and vibration damping, essential for accuracy during heavy-duty machining. Features include hardened and ground machine bedways, a front-loading chip tray for easy cleanup, a foot brake, and T-Slot compound slides with inch/metric calibrated dials. Additionally, the tailstock includes an inch/metric ruler on a 2" diameter quill with 6.5" travel, taper MT#4. The lathe supports various threading options with 45 inch threads and 39 metric threads, covering a broad pitch range. Longitudinal feed rates span 0.002" to 0.067" per revolution, and cross feed ranges up to 0.034" per revolution, facilitating fine machining control. The machine measures 81" by 36" by 60" and weighs approximately 3,190 lbs, balancing size with industrial robustness. It is ISO 9001 certified and designed for precision, durability, and ease of operation in professional machine shops.
