MAINLAND CA6280B/750 MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The Mainland CA6280B/750 manual lathe is a heavy-duty precision machine designed for versatile metal turning applications. It features a maximum swing diameter of 31.5 inches (800mm) over the bed and 21.3 inches (540mm) over the cross slide, allowing for machining of large-diameter workpieces. The distance between centers is 29.5 inches (750mm), suitable for medium-sized components. The lathe is powered by a robust 10.1 HP main motor, delivering spindle speeds up to 1,400 RPM through 24 stepped speed settings for optimal cutting control. The spindle bore diameter is 3.15 inches (80mm), accommodating sizable tooling and material feed. The bed width measures 400mm, providing solid support and rigidity during heavy machining operations. The cross slide travel is approximately 320mm, with a top tool post travel of 140mm, configured to hold standard 25x25mm tool bits. The spindle taper is MT6, compatible with a wide range of tooling. This conventional, horizontal gap-bed lathe supports a maximum workpiece length of 750mm and offers longitudinal feed options suitable for precise manual operation. Weighing around 2,670 kg, this lathe is built with a durable cast iron frame to ensure stability and reduce vibrations. Ideal for medium-duty industrial metalworking tasks, the Mainland CA6280B/750 combines robust construction, flexible speed control, and substantial work capacity for reliable manual turning performance.
