SAN SHING SF-32290 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SAN SHING SF-32290 is a heavy-duty precision lathe engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring substantial cutting capacity and reliable performance. This machine features a generous 32-inch swing over bed, accommodating large workpieces, with an exceptional 289-inch center distance enabling extended workpiece lengths for extended turning operations. The lathe incorporates a 4-inch spindle bore, providing ample clearance for various chuck types and workholding configurations. Powered by a robust 15 HP motor, the SF-32290 delivers consistent torque for heavy cutting operations, reaching maximum spindle speeds of 1,000 RPM with 12 speed changes for optimal feed rate versatility. The swing over cross slide measures 23.5 inches, allowing substantial radial workpiece diameters during cross-feed operations. The machine bed is constructed from high-strength cast iron FC-25 with a box-shaped lower section and integrated chip pan, ensuring rigidity and durability under continuous heavy-duty machining. Precision ground ways and adjustable guideways maintain tight tolerances throughout the machine's operational life. The lathe offers longitudinal and cross feeds ranging from 0.05-0.7 mm/rev and 0.025-0.35 mm/rev respectively, supporting both inch and metric threading capabilities. A dial rotary system enables quick spindle speed adjustments, while the readily adjustable overload safety device protects against inadvertent damage. With manual and automatic dual-feed options and a compound rest travel of 250mm, this lathe provides exceptional versatility for production runs, tool and die work, and general machining applications requiring precision and repeatability.
