VICTOR 2460T MANUAL LATHE

The Victor 2460T is a precision heavy-duty manual engine lathe engineered for demanding industrial turning operations. This 24" x 60" machine features a substantial 23.6-inch swing over the bed with 53-inch centers between spindles, providing generous capacity for large workpieces. The exceptional 4-1/8-inch spindle bore with D1-11 camlock spindle nose accommodates various chuck and fixture configurations, while the 15-inch swing over the cross slide enables efficient tool access and setup flexibility. Powered by a robust 20 HP three-phase motor, the lathe delivers impressive cutting performance across its 12-step spindle speed range from 25 to 1,200 RPM, adaptable to diverse material types and finishing requirements. The machine incorporates hardened and precision-ground induction bedways with high-tension mechanized casting iron construction, supporting a spindle assembly mounted on three precision bearings—two taper roller bearings and one ball bearing—ensuring exceptional rigidity and accuracy. Key operational features include a rapid and positive magnetic disc brake system controlled via emergency switch or foot pedal, 4-way power rapid traverse for streamlined operation, and dual-speed tailstock quill (1:1 and 1:4 ratios) facilitating efficient drilling operations. The apron incorporates fully interlocked sliding, surfacing, and screw-cutting motions with a cone-clutch overload protection device. Feed ranges span 0.0012" to 0.0287" per revolution longitudinally and 0.0004" to 0.0118" per revolution on cross feeds, supporting both inch threads (2-56 TPI) and metric threads (0.5-14mm). A pressure-lubrication system maintains all running components, while integrated coolant system and chip pan ensure efficient operation and material handling.
