SAN EAGLE L3380 MANUAL LATHE

The SAN EAGLE L3380 is a heavy-duty manual lathe designed for precision machining of large workpieces and specialized components. This machine tool features a generous swing diameter of 32.68 inches, enabling the machining of substantial disc-shaped and cylindrical work pieces. The 78.74-inch center distance provides extended between-centers capacity, accommodating elongated parts for through-spindle operations. With a spindle bore of 4.72 inches, the lathe offers ample clearance for mounting various tooling and work-holding devices. The machine is powered by a 14.75 HP motor, delivering sufficient torque for consistent material removal across diverse applications. Operating at 1,000 RPM, the spindle speed facilitates controlled cutting operations while maintaining surface finish quality—capable of achieving surface roughness values up to 3.2μm on finished components. The swing over cross slide dimension of 24.02 inches indicates the maximum workpiece diameter that can be turned over the compound rest assembly, useful for partial-diameter machining operations. As a manual lathe, the L3380 requires operator skill and attention for all feed and threading operations, providing the precision and flexibility demanded by tool and die shops, small batch manufacturing, and specialized machining facilities. This machine represents a versatile platform suitable for general job shop work, offering the structural rigidity and power necessary for both roughing and finishing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
