MAINLAND CA6266C/1500 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MAINLAND CA6266C/1500 Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty horizontal lathe designed for precision metal turning with a maximum swing over bed of 25.98 inches (660 mm) and a maximum distance between centers of 59.06 inches (1500 mm). It features a robust 10.06 HP (7.5 kW) main motor, allowing spindle speeds from 16 to 1400 RPM to accommodate a wide range of turning operations. The spindle bore diameter is 2.05 inches (52 mm), supporting sizable workpieces and tooling. The lathe provides a swing over the cross slide of 15.75 inches (400 mm), facilitating machining versatility on smaller diameters with stable support. The bed width measures 400 mm, with quenched bed rails for durability and accuracy. It includes a standard MT6 spindle taper and a 3-jaw, 10-inch chuck, with 4 tool post stations for efficient tool changes. The machine supports workpieces up to 1500 mm in length and can handle heavy materials, suited for cylindrical, conical, and threading operations. Designed with a gap-bed style, it allows machining of larger diameters near the tailstock. Typical dimensions are approximately 3200 mm in length, 1140 mm in width, and 1750 mm in height, with a weight around 2810 kg, underscoring its industrial-grade build quality. This lathe is ideal for steel and metalworking applications requiring precision and versatility in manual turning operations.
