MAINLAND CA6166B/3000 MANUAL LATHE

The MAINLAND CA6166B/3000 is a precision horizontal manual lathe engineered for versatile metal machining operations. This machine features a maximum swing of 25.98 inches over the bed and accommodates workpieces up to 118.11 inches between centers, making it suitable for medium to large-scale turning applications. The spindle bore diameter of 2.05 inches provides ample capacity for various tooling configurations, while the 15.75-inch swing over cross slide enables efficient access for tool positioning and workpiece manipulation. Powered by a 7.5 kW (10.06 HP) main spindle motor, the CA6166B delivers consistent cutting performance across its operational range. The spindle operates at speeds up to 1,400 RPM across 24 steps, allowing precise control for different materials and cutting conditions. The machine incorporates a robust 400mm bed width and accepts 25×25mm turning tools, providing structural rigidity and stability during machining. Standard features include a 3-jaw chuck, comprehensive cooling and lubrication systems, work lamp, and manual documentation. Optional upgrades feature digital readout display, 4-jaw chuck, steady and follow rests, face plate, quick-change toolpost, and foot brake for enhanced operational capability. The CA6166B demonstrates exceptional precision with 0.01mm accuracy, making it ideal for general machining of precision components. Its induction-hardened and ground guideways ensure extended tool life and repeatability, while the wide range of metric, inch, module, and diametric threading capabilities supports diverse manufacturing requirements.
