SUPERTEC 44280 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The SUPERTEC 44280 is a heavy-duty manual engine lathe engineered for precision metal turning operations in industrial and job shop environments. This machine features a robust 44-inch swing capacity, enabling operators to machine large-diameter workpieces with exceptional rigidity and accuracy. The extended 280-inch center distance accommodates lengthy workpieces, making it ideal for processing shafts, spindles, and other extended components commonly found in manufacturing applications. The lathe is equipped with a 6-inch spindle bore, providing ample clearance for accommodating various chuck sizes and workholding accessories. This spindle configuration supports multiple turning, facing, and threading operations across diverse material specifications. The manual operation provides experienced machinists with direct control over feed rates, spindle speeds, and depth of cut, allowing for optimized performance based on specific material properties and surface finish requirements. Manufactured by Supertech Machine Tool Co., Ltd., a Taiwan-based producer, this machine incorporates precision-ground bed ways and hardened spindle bearings to ensure consistent accuracy and extended service life. The manual control interface delivers reliable, repeatable performance without the complexity of CNC systems, making it cost-effective for shops requiring versatile turning capabilities. The SUPERTEC 44280's substantial construction and generous capacity specifications position it as a workhorse solution for heavy production runs, prototype development, and maintenance operations requiring reliable metal removal performance.
