Description
NEW 16" x 40" SHARP MODEL 1640LV PRECISION ENGINE LATHE
The spindle is mounted on 2 precision tapered roller bearings and one ball bearing. This triple bearing support system ensure accuracy and rigidity at all times.
The headstock can be adjusted for heavy irregular work piece at high speed turning to ensure vibration free operations.
Handles that are used for engaging gears are built with locking pins to prevent the handles from being knocked out of place accidentally or under heavy cutting circumstances. Repositioning of handles is done by pulling the spring-loaded handle back and then shifting.
The universal gearbox design allows easy selection of inch and metric threading by just turning the lever to the assigned position instead of changing individual gears outside the headstock.
Selection of gears at the gearbox is done by a rotational style lever that results in less movement of the gears compare with the back-and-forth shifting style lever.
