PANTHER 1720325 MANUAL LATHE

The PANTHER 1720325 is a heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for precision machining operations. This machine features an impressive 51.18-inch swing capacity, enabling the processing of large workpieces with considerable diameter. The extended 78.74-inch center distance accommodates lengthy components, making it suitable for extended turning operations. The spindle bore measures 4.09 inches, providing adequate clearance for through-spindle operations and accommodating various tooling configurations. Powered by a robust 15.0 HP motor, this lathe delivers substantial cutting force for demanding machining tasks. Operating at 195 RPM, the spindle speed is optimized for heavy-duty cutting applications involving larger diameter work. The swing over cross slide is 37.40 inches, allowing clearance for tools and fixtures during cross-slide operations. Built to PANTHER's engineering standards for all-geared heavy-duty lathes, this model incorporates a precision-engineered spindle typically supported by taper roller bearings for smooth, accurate rotation. The manual operation provides operators with direct control over cutting parameters, making it ideal for custom and prototype work. The all-geared transmission ensures reliable power delivery across the operating range. This lathe is designed for versatility in production environments, tool and die shops, and heavy manufacturing applications where durability and precision are essential requirements.
