MICROWEILY TY-2080 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The MICROWEILY TY-2080 is a manual lathe designed for precision turning applications, featuring a robust capacity with a 21.97-inch swing and a substantial 79.84-inch distance between centers, enabling it to accommodate long workpieces. The spindle includes a 3.12-inch bore, allowing the passage of sizable stock through the spindle for versatile machining operations. Powered by a 10.06 HP motor, the lathe delivers a maximum spindle speed of 1,550 RPM, balancing torque and speed for efficient material removal and finishing. The swing over the cross slide is 14 inches, providing clearance for larger diameter workpieces when using the cross-slide tooling. Constructed for strength and stability, typical of machine tools designed for turning, facing, and boring, it supports a range of operations including rough and finish turning, threading, and drilling. The machine’s headstock houses the spindle with preloaded bearings to ensure accuracy and smooth rotation. The bed, typically cast iron, maintains rigidity to minimize vibration and maintain precision during machining. The lathe is manual, meaning feed and speed controls rely on operator input for accuracy and finish, suitable for prototyping, repair, or small batch production where flexibility and control are paramount. Overall, the MICROWEILY TY-2080 offers substantial work capacity, stable construction, and effective power delivery, making it a versatile and reliable tool in a machine shop setting.
