Technical Description

The KRAFT L-500D/1000 Manual Lathe is a robust engine lathe designed for precision metal turning with a swing capacity of 19.69 inches, allowing large diameter workpieces to be machined. It features a center distance of 11.42 inches, suitable for handling moderately sized components. The spindle bore diameter is 3.23 inches, accommodating substantial tooling and workpiece insertion through the spindle. Powered by a 10.06 HP motor, the lathe provides strong torque and smooth operation with a maximum spindle speed of 1,600 RPM. The swing over the cross slide is 10.63 inches, enabling versatile machining on smaller diameters with cross-slide clearance. This manual lathe is engineered for durability and precision, supporting various turning, facing, and threading operations common in workshops and industrial applications. Its mechanical controls allow operators to perform detailed setups and adjustments. The combination of its swing size, spindle bore, and horsepower makes it suitable for medium-duty production tasks where manual lathe control is preferred. The lathe is built to provide stable and accurate machining for a range of metals and materials, maintaining consistent performance under moderate load conditions.
