VICTOR S2040B MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The VICTOR S2040B is a precision heavy-duty manual lathe featuring a 20-inch swing over the bed and 12.59 inches swing over the cross slide, optimizing it for substantial workpiece diameters and varied machining tasks. It offers a robust 40-inch distance between centers, enabling versatility in handling longer parts. The spindle bore measures approximately 3.12 to 3.13 inches, accommodating large-diameter tooling or bar stock for demanding operations. Powered by a 10.1 HP motor, the lathe delivers strong cutting performance with a broad spindle speed range that starts as low as 15 RPM for fine, controlled machining. It has a D1-8 spindle nose and Morse Taper #4 center in the sleeve for secure and precise tool and workpiece holding. The machine’s construction includes a full Meehanite casting bed and hardened, precision-ground gears and bedways to ensure rigidity and long-term accuracy. The spindle is supported by three precision bearings, enhancing smooth rotation and durability under heavy loads. Features such as a safety overload device, inch/metric threading capability without gear changes, and spline shaft-driven headstock transmission gears increase operational reliability and flexibility. The VICTOR S2040B lathe is built to withstand continuous heavy-duty use, with engineered components that allow it to maintain precision and performance across a wide variety of machining applications.
