About This Machine
Foreword
"The screw cutting engine lathe is the oldest and most important of machine tools and from it all other machine tools have been developed. It was the lathe that made possible the building of the steamboat, the locomotive, the electric motor, the automobile and all kinds of machinery used in industry. Without the lathe our great industrial progress of the last century would have been impossible."
The lathe represented in this manual is a modern day version of the screw cutting lathes that trace their roots back to the 1700's, which were themselves technological improvements of the bow lathe that can be traced back thousands of years to the ancient Egyptians.
Now, almost 300 years later, these modern "screw cutting" lathes are not just a piece of refined machinery, but a culmination of human ingenuity and knowledge embodied into the design and synergy of thousands of interworking
And now the torch is passed to
Capabilities

Features
As the name implies, these lathes feature EVS (Electronic Variable Speed) spindle control, that allows the operator to quickly adjust the spindle speed. One of four spindle speed ranges is selected with the speed range lever, then the exact speed within that range is chosen with the spindle speed dial. The current spindle speed is displayed with the digital tachometer on the control panel.
The beds of these lathes are constructed with Meehanite castings that are hardened and
