Product details
  • Machine bed: Heavily ribbed one-piece cast-iron bed, rigid headstock and massive stand provide a stable machine base and long-term guideway precision. Removable bridge allows machining of short workpieces with large diameters.
  • Headstock / feed gear: Multi-step gearbox and hardened, ground gears run in an oil bath to deliver high torque and reliable spindle support. Large spindle bore for shafts and tubes; standard chucks and faceplate included. User-friendly control panel at the headstock.
  • Support: Extra-wide support designed to absorb high cutting forces. Safety-interlocked feed controls, micrometer bed stop, slip coupling for automatic feed and central lubrication ensure safe, repeatable operation. Large swivable safety cover keeps the work area clean.
  • Tailstock: Tailstock quill with clear scale and long stroke for demanding drilling/centering tasks; lateral adjustment for conical shafts.
  • Accessories (standard): Brake pedal, rear splash guard, integrated LED work light, quick-change toolholder system with cartridge, steady and live rests, latest-generation position indicator, coolant system and operating tools.
