PANTHER 1720414 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The Panther 1720414 manual lathe is a heavy-duty machine designed for precision metalworking applications. It features a substantial swing capacity of 51.18 inches, allowing it to handle large diameter workpieces. The centers span 196.85 inches, accommodating extended lengths for long shaft or cylinder machining. The lathe’s spindle bore measures 4.09 inches, enabling the passage of sizable stock through the spindle for versatile operations. It is powered by a robust 20 HP motor, delivering sufficient torque for heavy cuts and demanding jobs, with a maximum spindle speed of 195 RPM suitable for machining large diameters at controlled speeds. The swing over the cross slide is 37.40 inches, providing ample clearance for tooling travel while maintaining rigidity during cutting. This lathe is constructed with a durable bed design and features precision-ground components such as robust spindle support, providing stability and accuracy. It includes essential components like a headstock with roller and ball bearings for spindle rigidity, a carriage for precise tool movement, and a tailstock to support workpieces securely. The machine is optimized for heavy-duty, manual lathe operations requiring high power and large capacity, suitable for industrial environments dealing with large-scale machining tasks such as turning, facing, boring, and threading on substantial workpieces.
