SAN SHING SHE-4000 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SAN SHING SHE-4000 is a heavy-duty precision engine lathe engineered for demanding industrial turning operations. Built with a high-strength cast iron FC-25 bed featuring box-shaped lower portions and an integrated chip pan, this machine delivers exceptional rigidity for heavy cutting applications. With a maximum swing of 59.06 inches over the bed and a 47.24-inch swing over the cross slide, the lathe accommodates large workpieces while maintaining precise tolerances. The 157.48-inch distance between centers enables production of extended cylindrical components, making it suitable for shaft work and long-part turning. The 6.02-inch spindle bore provides versatile chuck compatibility for various workholding solutions. Operating at 320 RPM with 24.93 HP of cutting power, this lathe delivers substantial torque for aggressive metal removal in steel, cast iron, and other challenging materials. The precision-ground bed ensures dimensional accuracy and repeatability across production runs. The cross slide mechanism enables precise depth-of-cut control for threading, facing, and profiling operations. This equipment represents a mid-range production lathe suitable for small-to-medium job shops, contract manufacturers, and facilities requiring reliable capability for repetitive turning tasks. The robust construction and generous power reserve make the SHE-4000 well-suited for continuous industrial use with minimal maintenance requirements.
