WEISS MACHINERY WM800F MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The WEISS MACHINERY WM800F Manual Lathe is a heavy-duty, precision-engineered machine designed for demanding turning applications in industrial environments. Featuring a robust construction with a hardened and precision-ground V-way bed, the lathe ensures exceptional stability and accuracy during operation. The main spindle is supported by high-precision tapered roller bearings, providing rigidity and minimizing vibration for smooth, reliable performance. With a maximum swing over bed of 31.5 inches (800 mm) and a distance between centers of 472.4 inches (12,000 mm), the WM800F is capable of handling large workpieces with ease. The spindle bore measures 3.9 inches (100 mm), accommodating a wide range of workholding options and enabling the machining of long, hollow components. Swing over the cross slide is 20.5 inches (520 mm), allowing for versatile tool positioning and access. The lathe is equipped with a geared headstock for quick and precise speed changes, supporting a broad range of spindle speeds to suit various materials and cutting requirements. Adjustable gibs on the slideways ensure consistent accuracy and minimize wear over time. The machine’s design emphasizes durability, ease of maintenance, and operator comfort, making it suitable for both batch production and custom machining tasks. The WM800F is engineered for high stability, precision, and reliability, making it an ideal choice for workshops requiring consistent, high-quality results in heavy-duty turning operations.
