SAN SHING SP-36250 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SAN SHING SP-36250 is a precision heavy-duty engine lathe engineered for industrial metal fabrication and component machining. This manual lathe features a 36-inch swing capacity with an extended 250-inch center distance, enabling machining of substantial cylindrical workpieces and elongated shafts. The 4-inch spindle bore accommodates various tooling configurations and work-holding devices for versatile operational flexibility. Powered by a 15-horsepower motor, the SP-36250 delivers robust cutting force for demanding material removal applications. The spindle operates at 1,000 RPM, providing optimal surface speeds for heavy turning operations while maintaining precision. The 27.5-inch swing over the cross slide allows clearance for mounted components and tooling during indexing operations. The lathe bed construction utilizes high-strength cast iron FC-25 material with a rigid box-structure design to minimize deflection under heavy cutting loads. This structural integrity ensures dimensional accuracy and repeatability across production runs. The manual control configuration provides operators with direct process feedback and control over feed rates, cutting speeds, and tool positioning. Designed for heavy cutting applications, this machine tool excels in producing large-diameter components, long shafts, and precision-turned parts across automotive, industrial, and manufacturing sectors. The combination of substantial swing capacity, extended center distance, and powerful spindle makes the SP-36250 suitable for job shops, contract manufacturers, and production facilities requiring reliable, precision lathe performance for heavy-duty machining operations.
