POREBA TCG-125 X 3M MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The POREBA TCG-125 X 3M is a heavy-duty manual lathe designed for precision turning and threading operations on large workpieces. Featuring a maximum swing of 49.21 inches over the bedways and 37 inches over the cross slide, this machine accommodates workpieces up to 60,000 lbs unsupported, or 80,000 lbs with dual steady rests installed. The 118.11-inch distance between centers enables extended turning lengths, while the 4.13-inch spindle bore accepts substantial work diameters. The lathe offers 24 spindle speeds ranging from 1.6 to 315 RPM, providing versatility for various material and operation requirements. The machine comes equipped with a 49-inch 4-jaw chuck for secure workholding and includes a power top compound for precision taper cutting. Six-way power rapid traverse accelerates positioning cycles, while the integrated coolant system enhances tool life and surface finish. Additional features include a 24-inch diameter steady rest and 9-inch follow rest for stabilizing long, slender workpieces, preventing deflection during machining. The dual rapid traverse motors deliver 4,000 mm/min for saddle movement and 2,000 mm/min for cross-slide and top-slide operations. With both inch and metric threading capability, the lathe supports 81 metric threads and 96 threads per inch, making it suitable for diverse production requirements. The power tailstock and 4-way tool post round out the comprehensive feature set, positioning this lathe as an ideal solution for heavy-duty production environments requiring reliability and precision.
