Description

Description
The DL S 515/4000 is a heavy‑duty conventional lathe designed for large diameters and long workpieces. It handles workpiece lengths up to 4,000 mm and turning diameters over 720 mm, with a wide, heavily ribbed one‑piece bed engineered to support high masses and heavy cutting forces.

Highlights
  • Between centers up to 4,000 mm
  • Spindle bore: 100 mm
  • Four‑step spindle speed selection
  • High torque main spindle motor (22 kW)
  • Rapid feeds in X and Z for fast positioning
  • Mounted 3‑axis position indicator (resolution 0.01 / 0.005 mm)


Product details
  • Extra‑heavy, wide monoblock bed with deep ribs to minimize deformation under load
  • Induction‑hardened and ground guideways for long‑term accuracy and low wear
  • Massive headstock with tapered roller bearings and 100 mm spindle bore for stability under heavy loads
  • Manually shifted 4‑step gearbox combined with frequency control for precise spindle tuning and high torque
  • Joystick mounted on the carriage for direct X and Z feed control
  • Adjustable overload clutch in apron to protect feed mechanisms
  • Support and top slide dimensioned for high cutting forces
  • Complete position display with tool storage, mm/inch conversion and thread calculations
