The SOUND SML 50 Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty engine lathe designed for precision machining of large workpieces. It features a **63-inch swing**, allowing it to accommodate substantial diameters over the bed, and a **center distance of 197 inches**, which enables the machining of long components. The lathe is equipped with a **4.13-inch spindle bore**, supporting the use of sizable bar stock or tooling through the spindle. This model is constructed for robustness and stability, typically offering hardened ways for durability and accuracy over extended use. Its design supports both roughing and finishing operations in heavy machining environments, often accompanied by power feed and threading capabilities to handle a wide range of tasks. The large swing and center distance position it well for applications in engine rebuilding, heavy machinery part manufacturing, and other industries requiring high-capacity manual lathe operations. The combination of these features makes the SOUND SML 50 suitable for precision turning, taper turning, and threading of substantial metal parts with reliable manual control.
