SAN SHING SE-28160 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SAN SHING SE-28160 Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty precision lathe designed for robust metalworking applications. It features a 28-inch swing capacity and a substantial distance between centers of 160 inches, accommodating long workpieces. The lathe is powered by a 10-horsepower motor, delivering spindle speeds up to 1,000 RPM across 12 selectable speed changes, enabling versatile machining operations. A key feature is its large spindle bore of 3.125 inches (80 mm), which facilitates the passage of long bars or shafts through the spindle, enhancing workpiece handling flexibility. The swing over the cross slide is 19.5 inches, allowing significant machining capacity over the carriage. The lathe bed is constructed from high-strength cast iron FC-25 with a heavily ribbed, wide design, induction hardened and precision ground for rigidity, stability, and precise tool guidance during heavy cutting. The spindle assembly is precision ground, supported at three points by high-precision bearings to minimize runout and ensure smooth rotation under heavy cutting loads. The apron and carriage include adjustable overload protection and dual lubrication (manual and automatic) for longevity and maintenance ease. Additional features include a taper no. 5 center for tailstock, adjustable feed rates for both longitudinal (0.05-0.7 mm/rev) and cross feeds (0.025-0.35 mm/rev), and metric/inch thread cutting capabilities. This lathe is suitable for heavy-duty precision machining, offering durability and performance for demanding industrial applications.
