Technical Description

The SAN EAGLE L3060 is a robust manual engine lathe designed for general-purpose turning operations and precision machining applications. This machine features a 29.92-inch swing capacity, enabling the machining of workpieces up to approximately 15 inches in radius. The 59.06-inch center distance provides substantial length capacity for extended workpiece operations, making it suitable for both short and medium-length components. The 4.53-inch spindle bore accommodates various chuck sizes and tooling configurations, offering flexibility in workholding options. Powered by a 10.06 horsepower motor, the lathe delivers adequate cutting force for steel, aluminum, and cast iron materials across multiple applications. Operating at 1,000 RPM maximum spindle speed, this machine prioritizes torque and precision over high-speed finishing, making it ideal for heavy-duty roughing and production work. The 21.26-inch swing over the cross slide provides practical clearance for tool positioning and workpiece access during setup and operation. The manual control design allows experienced operators full command over feed rates, spindle speed, and tool movement, enabling skilled craftspeople to optimize cutting parameters for specific materials and geometries. This lathe represents a traditional yet reliable platform commonly found in job shops, maintenance facilities, and educational institutions. Its combination of substantial swing capacity, extended centers, and moderate power makes it well-suited for diverse industrial applications requiring dependable performance and operator control in turning operations.
