LEBLOND RKL-1360V MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The LeBlOND RKL-1360V Manual Lathe is a high-speed precision machine engineered for demanding industrial turning applications. Featuring a 14.16-inch swing over the bed and 60 inches between centers, it provides robust capacity for a wide range of workpieces. The lathe is powered by a 5.0 HP main drive motor, delivering ample torque for efficient material removal and consistent performance. Its electronic variable speed headstock offers infinitely adjustable speeds up to 2,500 RPM, allowing operators to optimize cutting conditions for various materials and operations. The heavy-duty spindle is machined from forged alloy steel, hardened, ground, and dynamically balanced, supported by high-grade precision bearings for extended service life and accuracy. The spindle nose features a D1-6 cam-lock mount and a large through-hole for increased versatility. The machine’s wide bed is constructed from solid cast iron with induction-hardened and precision-ground ways, ensuring rigidity, vibration resistance, and long-term accuracy. The design incorporates a removable gap for expanded swing capabilities and a large-volume chip pan for easy chip removal. Standard features include a coolant system with electric pump, operator safety interlock, and a comprehensive electronic control panel with RPM display, emergency stop, and spindle jogging controls. The RKL-1360V also offers a wide selection of thread pitches, precise feeds, and a robust lead screw for threading operations. With a swing over the cross-slide of 8.39 inches, the lathe is well-suited for both general-purpose and precision machining tasks in industrial environments.
