VANTAGE KAN-70 MANUAL LATHE

The VANTAGE KAN-70 Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty machine designed for large-scale turning operations with a maximum swing of 70 inches and centers length of 480 inches, accommodating long and heavy workpieces. It delivers robust power with a 100-horsepower motor, enabling efficient handling of demanding machining tasks. The lathe features a swing over the cross-slide of 50 inches, providing significant machining capacity on smaller diameters. It is equipped with an 18-step manual spindle speed control and a gear transmission system that offers multiple speed ranges for versatile operation, allowing spindle speeds from as low as 4 rpm to over 1000 rpm, spread across four speed ranges for optimized cutting performance. The spindle bore measures approximately 6 inches, supporting large diameter bars and workpieces. The machine is built with a rigid construction typical for oil-country lathes, ensuring durability and stability under heavy cuts. The tailstock spindle features a MT #6 taper with a traverse of approximately 7.87 inches, facilitating precise support for long workpieces. The lathe's robust mechanical setup, including a heavy gear transmission and substantial power, makes it suitable for industries requiring large and precise cylindrical machining such as oilfield equipment manufacturing and heavy machinery repair. Its manual operation enables direct control for skilled machinists requiring flexibility and precision.
