SAMRAT MEDIUM DUTY BELT DRIVEN MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The Samrat Medium Duty Belt Driven Manual Lathe features a **swing capacity of 13.78 inches**, allowing machining of workpieces up to this diameter over the bed. It has a **distance between centers of 6 inches**, suitable for short to medium length turning tasks. The lathe includes a **spindle bore of 1.57 inches**, providing ample clearance for long stock feeding through the spindle. The belt-driven mechanism ensures smooth power transmission and adjustable spindle speeds via the belt system, enhancing versatility in various machining operations. Designed as a manual lathe, it requires operator input for tool movement and control, suitable for precision turning, facing, threading, and drilling on medium-sized workpieces. The construction typically involves a rigid cast iron bed and components to maintain alignment and reduce vibration during cutting. This lathe is ideal for shops needing a reliable medium-duty turning machine for moderate sized parts, balancing power, precision, and manual operation for controlled machining processes. The belt drive provides simple speed variation with minimal maintenance, while the spindle bore supports diverse tooling and stock diameters. Overall, the Samrat Medium Duty Belt Driven Lathe is engineered for durability, moderate capacity, and manual versatility in metalworking and general machining applications.
