ZMMBG CU 1250 X 6000 MANUAL LATHE

Technical Description

The ZMMBG CU 1250 X 6000 is a heavy-duty manual universal lathe designed for precision turning operations on large workpieces. This machine features a maximum swing diameter of 51.97 inches over the bed, enabling the machining of substantial components. The spindle bore measures 6.10 inches, accommodating large-diameter workholding accessories and tooling. The center distance of 236.22 inches between the headstock and tailstock provides extended turning length capabilities, making it suitable for long shaft work and complex multi-operation jobs. The machine operates at a maximum spindle speed of 1,000 RPM and is powered by a 29.57 HP main motor, delivering sufficient torque for demanding cutting applications. The swing over the cross slide reaches 37.01 inches, allowing generous clearance for workpiece geometry and tooling access during operations. The CU 1250 is equipped with 160 different feed rates, ranging from 0.032 to 38.9 mm/rev longitudinally and 0.016 to 19.45 mm/rev in cross feed, enabling precise control for threading, boring, and facing operations. The lathe supports 80 different thread pitches across metric, inch, module, and DP threading systems, facilitating diverse thread-cutting capabilities. Built with manual transmission controls, this machine combines traditional operational simplicity with modern manufacturing precision, making it ideal for job shops and production facilities requiring versatile turning capabilities on large components.
