PIN SHIN HL-860 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The PIN SHIN HL-860 is a manual lathe designed for medium-duty precision machining with a substantial swing capacity of 33.86 inches, allowing the turning of large-diameter workpieces. It features a spindle bore of 3.35 inches (approximately 85 mm), accommodating sizable rods or bars through the spindle for extended length machining. The machine offers an 8-step spindle speed variation up to a maximum of 1,050 RPM, enabling versatility for different cutting operations and materials. The swing over the cross slide is 25.20 inches, which defines the maximum diameter of the workpiece that can be machined at the tooling slide location. The bed width of 16 inches (406 mm) provides a stable and rigid base, enhancing machining accuracy and reducing vibration during operation. Distance between centers varies depending on the specific model variant, typically ranging from 1,000 mm to 4,000 mm, supporting long workpieces. The spindle is supported by precision taper roller bearings, ensuring durability and smooth rotation under load. The lathe’s components, including the cross slide and bed ways, undergo heat treatment and precise grinding to enhance wear resistance and maintain alignment over long service periods. The HL-860 is built with Meehanite cast iron parts for high rigidity and vibration dampening, making it suitable for conventional turning, facing, threading, and custom machining tasks in workshops requiring manual control and adaptability. This lathe is ideal for professionals seeking a reliable, precise, and mechanically simple solution for various manual turning operations.
