PROMPT 2060V MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The PROMPT 2060V Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty precision lathe designed for versatile machining tasks. It features a 20.08-inch swing over bed and a 13.46-inch swing over the cross slide, accommodating workpieces with a maximum diameter of over 20 inches and cross slide movements up to about 13.5 inches. The lathe has a distance between centers of 59.06 inches, providing ample length capacity for various turning operations. The spindle has a 3.23-inch bore with a D1-8 camlock nose and MT#5 taper to accommodate a wide range of tooling and work holding options. Powered to reach speeds up to 2,000 RPM, the spindle utilizes precision taper roller bearings for smooth, accurate rotation and durability. The lathe's geared head incorporates hardened and ground gears to ensure consistent speed transmission and rigidity under load. The machine bed is induction hardened and precision ground, mounted on a one-piece base to maximize structural integrity and vibration resistance during heavy machining. The tool slide offers significant travel for cross and top slides, allowing precise positioning and thread-cutting capabilities. It supports a diverse range of thread pitches and tapers with accurate feed mechanisms, suitable for both inch and metric threading. Overall, the PROMPT 2060V Manual Lathe combines robust construction, precise spindle bearing design, and versatile tooling capacity, making it suitable for engineering workshops, tool rooms, and precision manufacturing applications requiring reliable and consistent manual turning operations.
