TOS CELAKOVICE SU 150H/5000 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The TOS Celakovice SU 150H/5000 is a heavy-duty manual lathe designed for machining large shaft and flange workpieces with a maximum swing over the bed of 59.06 inches (1500 mm) and a centers distance of 196.85 inches (5000 mm). It features a robust spindle bore measuring 4.80 inches (approximately 115-128 mm), accommodating substantial diameter through-spindle turning. The lathe is powered by a 29.57 HP motor, delivering spindle speeds up to 355 RPM, suitable for rough turning and finishing operations on workpieces weighing up to 8,000 kg. Its bed width is substantial at around 800 mm, providing rigidity and support for precise machining. The machine includes hardened and ground guideways with Turcite B sliding compound on saddle surfaces for smooth feed and traverse motions. Its spindle typically uses a 5 Mk taper, common in heavy lathes, allowing various tooling attachments. The lathe’s capability encompasses feed and traverse turning, thread cutting, boring, and machining of repetitive rotary surfaces. It is designed for high stability and reliability in metalworking applications requiring long-term precision over large parts. Dimensions indicate a footprint around 17.2 meters long and 2.2 meters wide, emphasizing its industrial scale. This lathe is well-suited for heavy engineering, aerospace, or shipbuilding sectors where large components require accurate manual turning operations. Safety guards, steady rests, and various chuck options typically complement the setup, enhancing operational safety and versatility. Overall, the SU 150H/5000 represents a robust, versatile solution for large-scale manual turning needs.
