Lathes 500mm - 1250mm

Our Heavy duty range has a very rigid saddle due to the third support at the base of the gearbox, giving the same support as a lathe with twice the bed width. It also incorporates joystick control with rapids.

Our Semi-Heavy and Heavy Duty lathes are built for the most demanding environments with centre distances up to 10 metres, while maintaining complete accuracy.
