MARUTI MG-L-72 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MARUTI MG-L-72 is a precision manual lathe engineered for small to medium-scale machining operations in toolroom and production environments. With a swing capacity of 13.0 inches, this machine accommodates workpieces up to that diameter, making it suitable for compact turning applications. The 42.0-inch distance between centers provides adequate length for processing extended components, enabling versatile job configurations. The spindle bore of 1.714 inches facilitates the use of standard tooling and collets, allowing compatibility with conventional lathe accessories. Powered by a 0.94 horsepower motor, the unit delivers controlled cutting force appropriate for precision work while maintaining energy efficiency. The manual operation design provides machinists with direct control over spindle speed, feed rates, and tool positioning, essential for custom fabrication, prototyping, and specialized machining tasks requiring operator expertise and flexibility. This lathe is particularly well-suited for producing turned components, performing threading operations, boring, drilling, and facing work. The compact footprint and moderate power consumption make it an economical choice for small shops and educational institutions. The combination of specifications positions the MG-L-72 as a capable machine for precision work on smaller-diameter stock, offering the reliability and controlability characteristic of manual lathe operation while occupying minimal floor space.
