These Heavy duty horizontal lathes for industrial metal turning applications with with a turning weight of 3000kg Between Center's and a max Swing over bed of Ø800mm (31"):
This heavy-duty horizontal lathe, with a maximum swing over bed of Ø800mm (31 inches), is a crucial machine tool in industrial environments, ideal for machining large and heavy workpieces. Renowned for its sturdy construction, this lathe features a heavily ribbed bed and large spindle bearings, ensuring stability and rigidity during demanding operations like cutting, drilling, boring, and facing. The lathe bed, typically constructed from high-quality cast iron or steel, provides a solid foundation for the workpiece and cutting tool, effectively minimizing vibrations and enhancing precision.
The spindle, supported by substantial bearings, operates at speeds ranging from 60 to 600 RPM, driven by a high-torque motor that can withstand the forces required for heavy-duty machining. The cutting tool, mounted on a cross slide, moves along the bed for precise operation and offers power feed capabilities for semi-automatic or fully automatic processes.
Additional features of this lathe include a large chuck for securely holding the workpiece, a tailstock for supporting longer pieces, and versatile tooling options such as a quick-change tool post or turret. Together, these elements and the lathe's durable design make it a dependable choice for complex and high-stress machining tasks in manufacturing and engineering settings.

Using a heavy-duty horizontal lathe with a max swing over bed of Ø800mm (31") involves the following steps:
Setup: Install the workpiece on the chuck or between centers and secure it tightly. If necessary, mount any special fixtures or tooling to the bed.
Adjust the cutting tool: Mount the cutting tool in the tool post or turret and adjust its height so that it is in the correct position for the operation. Set the cross slide and carriage to the correct position, and ensure that the cutting tool is properly aligned with the workpiece.
Choose the appropriate speed: Select the appropriate speed for the workpiece and operation. This will depend on the type of material being machined, the size and shape of the workpiece, and the type of cutting tool being used.
Start cutting: Turn on the lathe and begin the cutting operation. Adjust the speed and feed rate as necessary to achieve the desired surface finish and cutting speed.
Monitor the process: Continuously monitor the cutting operation, paying close attention to the sound of the cutting tool and the workpiece. Adjust the speed and feed rate as necessary to ensure that the cutting tool is not overheating, and that the workpiece is not experiencing excessive vibration or deflection.
Finish the cut: Once the cut is complete, turn off the lathe and remove the workpiece. Clean the lathe, including the cutting tool and the bed, to remove any chips or debris.
Inspect the workpiece: Inspect the workpiece to ensure that it meets the desired specifications and that there are no defects or blemishes. Repeat the process as necessary to achieve the desired results.
It is important to follow proper safety procedures when using a heavy-duty horizontal lathe, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and ear protection, and observing all safety warnings and instructions. Additionally, it is advisable to receive proper training and instruction from a qualified instructor before operating a heavy-duty horizontal lathe.
