NAGMANI MEDIUM 6 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The Nagmani Medium 6 Manual Lathe is a precision machining center designed for general-purpose turning operations in industrial workshops and maintenance facilities. This horizontally-oriented center lathe features a robust cast iron construction that ensures durability and minimal vibration during extended operation. With a 16-inch swing diameter, the machine accommodates workpieces up to this dimension, while the 72-inch between-centers capacity enables processing of elongated components typical in automotive, fabrication, and engineering applications. The lathe is equipped with a 2-inch spindle bore compatible with standard tooling and workholding accessories, facilitating versatile setup configurations. Operating at 450 RPM with a 2 HP motor, the machine delivers adequate cutting force for steady-state material removal in ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. Manual operation provides operators with direct control over feed rates and spindle engagement, making it suitable for skilled machinists performing diverse turning tasks including facing, threading, boring, and knurling operations. The 9.8-inch swing over the cross-slide permits radial access for tool positioning and workpiece inspection. This mid-size machine represents the medium-duty classification, offering a balance between power delivery and operational flexibility without the complexity of automated systems. All replacement components are standardized and interchangeable, ensuring rapid spare parts availability within 24 hours domestically, minimizing downtime. The machine's specifications align with Indian manufacturing standards and make it well-suited for job shops, tool rooms, and production facilities requiring reliable, manually-controlled precision turning capabilities.
