LEBLOND RKL-2090V MANUAL LATHE

The LeBlond RKL-2090V is a heavy-duty manual engine lathe designed for precision metalworking with a substantial 21.37-inch swing capacity and a maximum centers distance of 90 inches, allowing for the machining of large workpieces. It features a robust 12.5 HP motor capable of reaching up to 1,800 RPM spindle speed, providing ample power for a broad range of turning operations. The spindle bore measures 3.15 inches, accommodating sizable bar stock and tooling. The lathe's construction includes induction-hardened and precision-ground ways along with a solid 2V bed design, ensuring rigidity for accurate and stable machining. The headstock spindle is crafted from forged alloy steel, hardened, and dynamically balanced, supported by three high-grade precision bearings for durability and minimal runout. This model typically incorporates an electronic variable speed control system for fine RPM adjustments, an LED spindle speed display, and safety features such as an emergency stop and spindle jogging controls. Additional practical features likely include a chip pan for debris removal, coolant system integration, and ergonomic operator controls for thread cutting and feed adjustments, based on the RKL series design standards. This lathe suits applications demanding high accuracy, broad capacity, and robust power, making it ideal for heavy-duty manufacturing environments requiring manual lathe operations with flexibility in workpiece size and speed control.
