This series of machines are universal engine lathes, they are suitalbe for cutting swing workpieces, such as external cylindrical surfaces turning, internal hole, taper and thread machining etc. The belt cover on the left end of the machine snaps off rather than being held on with screws as on the ManSon. Ftype: hydraulic copying, M type: precision. Being wider than common lathe bed, this kind of lathes are with higher rigidity. Hardened by means of middle-frequency in duction method, the guideway surfaces of the beds are durable. The construction rigidity and driving rigidity of this kind of lathe are higher than the rigidity of common lathes. With higher power utilization ratio, the lathes are suitable for heavy and high speed cutting operations. The spindle bore of the lathe of this kind is larger and the accessories of which can complete your choice.

At the time it was billed as "The World's Smallest Lathe." Overall length is only 9-3/16". The extremely tiny size limits the parts that can be made on it, but the design is substantial enough to indicate it was intended to make small metal parts to some level of accuracy. The original finish was grey paint. The spindle has a 3/16" through hole and threaded nose (7/16-20) to accept a faceplate or chuck. The swing over the bed was approximately 2" with 4" between centers. Swing over the carriage was 3/4" and collet capacity was 1/8". The carriage was driven by a rack gear by means of a handwheel on the carriage. The tool post accepts a square 3/16" cutting tool. An accessory kit was available that included a 4-jaw independent chuck, faceplate, drive togs and collets. The spindle runs in ball bearings rather than the plain bronze bearings used on the less expensive models. No name information is cast in as was the case on the older Manson lathes. The main body casting is very similar to the ManSon except the headstock is raised to accommodate a 3" swing. |
