VICTOR 20160S MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The VICTOR 20160S is a precision heavy-duty manual lathe featuring a 20-inch swing over the bed and 13-inch swing over the cross slide, capable of handling large workpieces with high accuracy and stability. It accommodates a maximum distance between centers of 160 inches, supporting long-length machining projects. The lathe is powered by a robust 10-horsepower 3-phase motor, delivering full power across 12 spindle speeds ranging from 20 to 1,550 RPM, allowing for versatile machining operations from roughing to finishing. A large 3.128-inch spindle bore with an MT #7 taper and D1-8 spindle nose provides ample capacity for heavy-duty spindle operations. Threading capabilities include inch and metric threads without the need for gear changes, with ranges from 2 to 112 TPI and 0.2 to 14 mm, supported by precise feed rates for longitudinal and cross feeds. The machine’s Meehanite casting bed and extra-large rigid compound rest contribute excellent stability and machining consistency. Additional features include a dual-speed tailstock quill for efficient drilling and a power rapid traverse on the longitudinal axis for improved productivity. Overall, the Victor 20160S lathe is designed for demanding industrial applications requiring strength, precision, and long workpiece capacity, making it suitable for heavy, complex turning tasks in automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing sectors.
