Jet E-1340VS With ACU-RITE 203 DRO With Taper Attachment (892404)

Description

The Jet E-1340VS With ACU-RITE 203 DRO With Taper Attachment (892404) is a versatile engine lathe well-suited for schools, small machine shops, and engineering labs. This heavy-duty lathe packs a powerful 3 HP motor with variable speed control (0-2200 RPM) into a compact footprint, making it ideal for environments where space is limited.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Precision and Control: The ACU-RITE 203 Digital ReadOut (DRO) ensures accurate measurements for consistent results, while the variable speed control allows for optimal machining speeds on various materials.
• Versatility: The included taper attachment enables machining of tapered workpieces, expanding the lathe’s capabilities.
• Durability and Safety: Constructed with certified Meehanite castings for long-lasting performance and featuring safety features like an electromagnetic brake and chuck guards, this lathe prioritizes both user safety and machine longevity.
• Smooth Operation: Ball-bearing mounted steady and follow rests provide smooth material movement during operation.
• User-Friendly Design: The LED readout offers clear visibility of spindle speeds, and the enclosed splash guard with CNC-style lighting keeps the work area clean and well-illuminated.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Swing over bed: 13 inches
• Distance between centers: 40 inches
• Spindle taper with sleeve: MT-5
• Motor: 3 HP, 230V, 3-Phase
• Variable speed range: 0-2200 RPM
• Number of longitudinal and cross feed rates: 80
• Weight: 1433 lbs

HOW TO USE:

1. Preparation: Secure your workpiece in the chuck or between the centers. Ensure proper safety gear is worn.
2. Set Up: Power on the lathe and select the desired spindle speed using the variable speed control. Choose the appropriate feed rate for your material and operation.
3. Machining: Engage the clutch and use the carriage handwheels to maneuver the cutting tool along the desired path on the workpiece. The DRO system provides real-time feedback on positioning.
4. Monitoring and Adjustment: Regularly monitor chip formation and adjust cutting parameters as needed for optimal results.
5. Shut Down: Once machining is complete, disengage the clutch, power off the lathe, and allow it to come to a complete stop before removing the workpiece.
