MAINLAND CA6161C/2000 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MAINLAND CA6161C/2000 manual lathe is a heavy-duty, conventional horizontal lathe designed for precision machining with a maximum swing of 24.02 inches (610 mm) over the bed and 14.57 inches (370 mm) swing over the cross slide. It supports workpieces up to 78.74 inches (2000 mm) between centers, making it suitable for medium to large-size components. The spindle features a bore diameter of 2.05 inches (approximately 52 mm) and operates at speeds up to 1400 RPM with 24-step speed regulation, powered by a 10.06 HP (7.5 kW) motor. The lathe’s robust 400 mm wide bed provides stable support during cutting operations, with the tooling accommodated via a 25x25 mm tool post capable of multiple stations for versatile machining. Its spindle taper is MT6, allowing compatibility with a range of tooling. The machine's dimensions are approximately 3650 mm in length, 1140 mm in width, and 1750 mm in height, weighing around 2940 kg, indicating solid construction for durability and vibration resistance. The lathe is electrically compatible with 380V power supplies and designed for varied spindle speeds and torque outputs (up to 1500 Nm cutting torque), providing strong cutting performance across different metals. This model typically includes features such as manual scraping for precise fit of critical components (bed, headstock, tailstock), ensuring reliability and accuracy during long production runs. This lathe is suitable for skilled machinists requiring a reliable machine for turning, facing, threading, and other lathe operations on medium-to-large diameter workpieces.
