CA6161 Common lathe Specification

CA6250 Universal Lathe

The Universal Lathe has a bed that supports the workpiece and allows it to rotate while being machined by the cutting tool. The cutting tool is mounted on a tool post that can be moved along the length of the bed to adjust the depth of cut. The machine also has a tailstock that provides support for the other end of the workpiece and can be used to hold tools for drilling or tapping operations.

One of the key features of the Universal Lathe is its ability to change the speed of the spindle, which is the rotating component that holds the workpiece. This allows the machine to work with a wide range of materials, from soft metals like aluminum to harder materials like steel. The machine may also have additional attachments, such as a milling attachment, that can further expand its capabilities.

Overall, the Universal Lathe is a highly versatile machine that is capable of performing a wide range of machining operations, making it a valuable tool for metalworking shops and manufacturing facilities.

CA6240 Manual lathe, also known as a metalworking lathe, is a machine tool that rotates a workpiece on its axis to perform various operations, such as cutting, drilling, turning, facing, threading, and more. It is a fundamental tool in the metalworking industry and has been in use for centuries, providing precision and accuracy in shaping metal parts

CA6240 Manual Lathe Specification

Features of a Manual Lathe

A manual lathe consists of several components that work together to achieve the desired results. These components include:

Bed: The bed is the base of the lathe and provides a stable platform for the other components. It is usually made of cast iron or steel and has a flat and horizontal surface.

Headstock: The headstock is mounted on the bed and houses the main spindle, which rotates the workpiece. It also includes gears for controlling the spindle speed and a chuck for holding the workpiece.

Tailstock: The tailstock is located at the opposite end of the bed from the headstock and includes a movable spindle that can be adjusted to support the other end of the workpiece.

Carriage: The carriage is mounted on the bed and moves along the bed’s ways. It includes the cutting tool and can be moved manually to make various cuts on the workpiece.

Cross-slide: The cross-slide is mounted on the carriage and moves perpendicular to the bed’s ways. It provides the ability to make precise cuts and measurements.

Toolpost: The toolpost holds the cutting tool and can be adjusted to change the angle and position of the tool.

Feed rod: The feed rod is used to move the carriage and cross-slide in a precise and controlled manner.

Lead screw: The lead screw is used to move the carriage and cross-slide automatically to create threads on the workpiece.

Characteristics of a Manual Lathe

Manual lathes have several characteristics that make them unique compared to other machine tools. These include:

Precision: Manual lathe provide high precision and accuracy in shaping metal parts, making them ideal for applications that require tight tolerances.

Versatility: Manual lathe can perform a wide range of operations, including cutting, drilling, turning, facing, threading, and more.

Control: Manual lathe require a high level of operator skill and control to achieve the desired results. Operators must be able to adjust the cutting tool’s angle and position, control the spindle speed, and move the carriage and cross-slide in a precise and controlled manner.

Durability: Manual lathe are built to last and can withstand heavy use and abuse in industrial settings.

Cost-effectiveness: Manual lathe are often less expensive than other types of machine tools, making them an attractive option for small businesses and hobbyists.

Applications of a Manual Lathe

Manual lathe are used in a variety of applications across different industries, including:

Manufacturing: Manual lathe are used to produce a wide range of metal parts, including shafts, gears, valves, bearings, and more.

Repair and maintenance: Manual lathe are used to repair and maintain existing parts, such as worn-out bearings, damaged shafts, and broken gears.

Hobby and DIY: Manual lathes are popular among hobbyists and DIY enthusiasts who enjoy metalworking and want to create their own parts and tools.

Conclusion of  Manual Lathe

Manual lathe are a fundamental tool in the metalworking industry and provide precision, accuracy, and versatility in shaping metal parts. They require a high level of operator skill and control but offer a cost-effective and durable solution for

The main uses of an engine lathe

The engine lathe is a versatile machine tool that can be used for a wide variety of metalworking and woodworking applications. Some of the main uses of an engine lathe include:

Turning: The en  gine lathe is primarily used for turning operations, which involve removing material from the outside diameter of a workpiece to create a cylindrical shape. Turning is used to create parts such as shafts, cylinders, and tubes.

Facing: Facing is a machining operation that involves removing material from the end of a workpiece to create a flat surface. The engine lathe is commonly used for facing operations.

Drilling: The engine lathe can be used to drill holes in a workpiece. A drill bit is mounted on the tailstock and is rotated by the spindle. The workpiece is held in place by the headstock and is fed into the drill bit by moving the carriage.

Taper turning: Taper turning is a machining operation that involves creating a conical shape on the outside diameter of a workpiece. The engine lathe can be used to create tapered parts such as shafts and pins.

Thread cutting: The engine lathe can be used to cut threads on a workpiece. A cutting tool is mounted on the tool post and is fed into the workpiece at a specific angle to create the desired thread.

Knurling: Knurling is a machining operation that involves creating a pattern of small ridges on the outside diameter of a workpiece. The engine lathe can be used to create knurled parts such as handles and knobs.

Boring: Boring is a machining operation that involves enlarging an existing hole in a workpiece. The engine lathe can be used to bore holes in a workpiece using a boring bar that is mounted on the tool post.

CA6140 Engine Lathe Specification

The structural rigidity and transmission rigidity of the machine tool is higher than that of ordinary lathes, and the power utilization rate is high, which is suitable for strong cutting.

Before leaving the factory, the machine tool is inspected in strict accordance with the inspection procedures, and a strong cutting test is done to ensure that the machine tool has good precision stability and processing reliability.

CA6150 Horizontal Lathe advantages of machine tools

1. Manual scraping and grinding between the joint surfaces of the bed head box, the bed, the tailstock, the pallet, etc., and the whole machine has been strictly tested to effectively ensure the accuracy and stability of the machine tool.
2. The machine tool is made of high-strength cast iron, with copper and chromium special materials added, the width of the bed guide rail is 400mm, and the quenching depth of the bed guide rail reaches 4mm, which effectively improves the wear resistance and stability of the machine tool.
3. The cycloidal pump is used for the lubrication of the bedside box of the machine tool, which ensures the cleanliness and heat dissipation characteristics of the bedside box for the hot weather in the south and effectively prolongs the service life of the bearings and gears.
