MEGABORE PA-50 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MEGABORE PA-50 Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty machining tool designed for large-diameter turning operations, featuring a 50-inch swing and a substantial 120-inch distance between centers, allowing for the machining of long workpieces. It has a 6-inch spindle bore, suitable for hollow spindle applications common in oil field and heavy industrial uses. The lathe provides a 40-inch swing over the cross slide, enabling larger diameter cuts during cross-slide operations. Powered by a robust 25-horsepower motor, it delivers the torque and power necessary for demanding turning tasks. Constructed with a rigid, one-piece bed casting, it ensures stability and precision during heavy cutting and high torque applications. The machine includes an 18-speed geared headstock offering multiple spindle speeds, providing versatility for various workpiece materials and cutting conditions. Key features include a cross slide travel of approximately 26 inches and a compound tool post for precise tool positioning. The lathe also incorporates MT#6 taper quill for live or dead center use. An integrated lubrication system supports long-term machine health and reliability. This PA series lathe is built for durability, precision, and ease of operation, making it suitable for oilfield, hollow spindle, and general heavy turning applications requiring both large capacity and powerful performance. Its construction and specifications position it as an optimal solution for industrial workshops requiring a balance of swing capacity, spindle bore, and motor power.
