SAN EAGLE V1940 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The San Eagle V1940 manual lathe is a heavy-duty machine tool designed for precision metalworking. It features a maximum swing of 18.5 inches, allowing workpieces of up to this diameter to be machined with accuracy. The lathe’s centers measure 29.9 inches, providing substantial length capacity between centers for turning longer components. The spindle bore is 2.3 inches in diameter, accommodating larger diameter bar stock or tooling through the spindle. Power is delivered by a robust 7.5 HP motor, enabling effective machining of hard materials. The lathe spindle can reach speeds up to 2,000 RPM, providing versatility for different cutting operations. The swing over the cross slide is 11 inches, offering additional clearance for tool movement and workpiece manipulation during cross-feed operations. This lathe’s manual operation makes it suitable for detailed, hands-on machining requiring skilled operator control. Its specifications support a wide range of turning, facing, threading, and drilling tasks, making it ideal for tool rooms, prototyping, and small batch production. The combination of its relatively large swing and substantial power output enables efficient machining of medium-sized workpieces with precision. Overall, the San Eagle V1940 is a durable and adaptable manual lathe, well-equipped for demanding metalworking applications requiring both reach and rotational speed.
