MEET 10' HD MANUAL LATHES

Technical Description

The MEET 10' HD Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty precision metalworking machine engineered for demanding industrial applications. This conventional engine lathe features a robust 10-foot bed length paired with a substantial swing capacity of 17.91 inches over the bed, enabling operators to work with larger workpieces. The 120-inch distance between centers provides extended turning capacity for lengthy components, making it ideal for shaft work and extended cylindrical turning operations. The lathe is equipped with a 2.05-inch spindle bore, accommodating standard tooling and workholding devices for versatile machining applications. The 2.68 HP spindle motor delivers sufficient power for sustained heavy cutting operations while maintaining precision throughout extended machining cycles. The machine features an induction-hardened bed way system that resists wear and maintains accuracy over extended service life, a critical component for maintaining tolerance consistency in production environments. Built with precision-ground casting construction, the MEET 10' HD Manual Lathe incorporates hardened and ground gears and shafts for reliable power transmission and longevity. The conventional manual operation provides operators with direct control over feed rates, spindle speeds, and cutting parameters, allowing skilled machinists to optimize results for specific applications. Standard features include full-length splash guards for coolant containment, adjustable feed pressure controls, and a chip removal system for shop cleanliness and safety. This manual precision lathe is suitable for tool room operations, prototype development, and production runs requiring versatility and operator control. Its heavy-duty construction, extended between-centers capacity, and reliable 2.68 HP motor make it a dependable solution for diverse metalworking requirements.
