SAN EAGLE V1722 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SAN EAGLE V1722 is a versatile manual engine lathe designed for precision turning operations in small to medium-scale production environments. This machine features a 16.93-inch swing capacity, enabling workpieces up to that diameter to be machined with accuracy. The 22.05-inch center distance provides adequate length for turning operations on moderately sized components, while the 2.28-inch spindle bore accommodates standard lathe tooling and work-holding equipment. Powered by a 7.5 horsepower motor, the V1722 delivers consistent cutting performance across its operational range. The spindle operates at a maximum speed of 2,000 RPM, making it suitable for both roughing and finishing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The swing over cross slide of 9.45 inches allows for part-off and facing operations without interference, facilitating efficient workflow during multi-step machining sequences. The manual configuration places full control in the operator's hands, requiring skilled technique for feed rates and cutting parameters. This design proves advantageous for custom job shop work, prototype development, and educational applications where operator decision-making is valued. The V1722's construction emphasizes rigidity and longevity, typical of SAN EAGLE's manufacturing standards, making it a reliable choice for facilities requiring dependable precision turning capabilities. Its compact footprint combined with practical working capacity makes it an efficient addition to general-purpose machine shops.
