MAINLAND CA6261/1500 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MAINLAND CA6261/1500 manual lathe is a heavy-duty machine designed for versatile metal turning operations. It features a maximum swing over the bed of 24.02 inches (610 mm) and a swing over the cross slide of 14.57 inches (370 mm), enabling the machining of sizeable workpieces with precision. The lathe accommodates workpieces up to 59.06 inches (1500 mm) between centers, making it suitable for medium-length components. The spindle has a bore diameter of 2.05 inches (52 mm), supporting larger tooling and material throughput. Powered by a 10.06 HP (7.5 kW) motor, the lathe achieves spindle speeds up to 1,400 RPM through a 24-step gearbox, facilitating a wide range of metal cutting speeds for various materials and thread cutting. Its rigid gap bed design provides stable operation and vibration resistance. The machine typically includes a four-station tool post for flexible tooling setups. It supports a maximum workpiece weight around 400 kg. The spindle taper conforms to MT6 standards (No. 6 Morse taper), allowing compatibility with a broad selection of tooling. Power supply options generally include 220V or 380V. Overall, the CA6261/1500 is engineered for precise internal and external turning, tapering, and threading tasks in industrial metalworking environments, offering robustness and adaptability to diverse applications. Dimensions and weight vary but approximate 2500 mm in length and 2487 kg in mass, ensuring heavy-duty capacity with stability during high-torque operations.
