MAXCUT ML-22160MD MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MAXCUT ML-22160MD is a precision manual engine lathe engineered for heavy-duty production and job shop applications. This machine features a 22.05-inch swing capacity, accommodating workpieces up to that diameter, with an impressive 157.5-inch center distance enabling the machining of extended cylindrical components. The lathe is equipped with a 3.15-inch spindle bore, providing adequate clearance for mounting standard chucks and fixtures. Powered by a robust 15 horsepower motor, the machine operates at a consistent 1,200 RPM spindle speed, delivering sufficient torque for demanding cutting operations across various materials. The 13.39-inch swing over the cross slide permits lateral tool positioning for efficient facing and grooving tasks. This configuration makes the MAXCUT ML-22160MD ideal for turning, boring, threading, and facing operations on mid-to-large diameter workpieces. The manual operation allows skilled machinists direct control over feed rates and cutting parameters, ensuring precision and flexibility in production environments. With its substantial bed length and rigid construction, this lathe maintains dimensional accuracy and repeatability throughout extended production runs. The machine represents a versatile solution for contract manufacturers, tool and die shops, and facilities requiring dependable performance on various ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Its combination of generous swing diameter and extended centers makes it particularly suitable for shaft work, bushing production, and complex multi-operation turning applications requiring a single setup to minimize handling and maximize throughput.
