NAGMANI HEAVY-4 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The NAGMANI HEAVY-4 Manual Lathe is a robust engine lathe designed for versatile turning applications with moderate to large workpieces. It features an 18.9-inch swing, allowing machining of parts up to that diameter, and a maximum distance between centers of 120.1 inches, supporting long shaft work. The spindle bore measures 2.1 inches, enabling the passage of sizable stock through the spindle for extended length machining. Powered by a 2.9 HP motor, the lathe delivers up to 450 RPM spindle speed, suitable for a range of materials and turning operations from rough cutting to finishing. The swing over the cross slide is 12.0 inches, defining the largest diameter that can be machined perpendicular to the bed using the cross slide movement. As a manual lathe, it requires skilled operator control of handwheels and levers for precise tool positioning and feed adjustments, offering flexibility for one-off, repair, or custom machining tasks. The lathe’s construction likely includes a cast iron bed to ensure stability and vibration damping, essential for maintaining accuracy. Its design supports standard lathe operations such as turning, facing, threading, boring, and drilling using the tailstock, making it a suitable machine tool for workshops focusing on medium-scale production, repair, or prototyping. Overall, the NAGMANI HEAVY-4 provides a balance between capacity, power, and manual control for reliable and precise machining of moderate to large components.
