Technical Description

The ZMM CU 400MRD X 5000 is a heavy-duty manual centre lathe engineered for precision turning operations on large workpieces. Featuring a 17.32-inch swing over bed and an exceptional 196.85-inch distance between centers, this machine accommodates extensive longitudinal work. The 2.83-inch spindle bore and Morse taper tailstock quill enable secure workholding and tooling versatility. Powered by a 14.75 HP motor operating at speeds up to 2,000 RPM, the lathe delivers consistent cutting performance across 21 spindle speed steps. The 9.45-inch swing over cross slide provides adequate lateral tool clearance for complex profiling. Equipped with 120 longitudinal and cross feeds ranging from 0.04–12 mm/rev and 0.02–6 mm/rev respectively, the machine supports precise dimensional control. Threading capabilities include 64 thread options spanning metric (0.5–120 mm), inch (60–1/4 TPI), and module ranges. Manual transmission control ensures operator command over all functions, while the quick-change Amestra toolpost with multiple holders streamlines tool changes.
