PROKING PH-50 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The PROKING PH-50 is a heavy-duty manual lathe engineered for oil country and industrial turning operations. This machine features a swing capacity of 51.18 inches over the bed, accommodating large workpieces for precision machining. The swing over cross slide measures 38.78 inches, providing substantial clearance for complex part geometries and tool positioning. The PH-50 is equipped with a dual voltage spindle motor rated at 40 to 100 HP, offering flexibility for varying production demands and international installation requirements. The lathe incorporates a totally enclosed universal inch/metric gearbox, enabling seamless conversion between measurement systems for diverse manufacturing specifications. A carriage position device ensures accurate workholding and repeatable operations across multiple production cycles. The machine utilizes a three-shear bed way with four-way guide construction, delivering exceptional rigidity and stability during heavy-duty cutting operations. A pressurized one-shot lubrication system automatically supplies the cross slide and carriage, minimizing maintenance requirements and extending component lifespan. This PH series lathe maintains a center height of approximately 650mm (25.59 inches) and supports distance between centers up to 12,000mm, making it suitable for extended workpiece lengths. The PH-50 represents Proking's commitment to robust, production-grade machinery designed for demanding turning applications in oil field services, fabrication, and heavy industrial environments.
