PRMG CZ6240A MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The PRMG CZ6240A is a heavy-duty manual engine lathe engineered for precision turning operations in small to medium workshops. Featuring a 15.75-inch swing diameter over the bed and a maximum workpiece length of 1,500mm between centers, this machine delivers exceptional versatility for automotive repair, educational institutions, and general manufacturing applications. The lathe is constructed from HT200 grade cast iron, providing superior rigidity and vibration damping that ensures minimal deformation under load and enhanced surface finish quality. Equipped with a robust mechanical gearbox transmission system, the CZ6240A operates at up to 1,600 RPM with stable torque delivery, making it reliable in environments with inconsistent power supply. The machine features a precision gap bed design with a removable section that extends swing diameter to approximately 400mm over the bed, accommodating larger shafts and flanged components. Key specifications include a center height of 200mm, spindle bore of 48mm with Morse taper #5 tailstock quill, and a 7.4 HP motor. The lathe accommodates various materials including mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, copper, and engineering plastics. Weighing approximately 1,650 kg, refurbished units are fully inspected, cleaned, with bearing replacement and updated safety guards including emergency stop functionality. Regular maintenance—including linear way oiling, daily chip cleaning, quarterly gearbox oil changes, and annual calibration—extends service life beyond 10 years under heavy use.
