JET JWL-1440VS BENCHTOP LATHE ( LEGS Not Incl)

Jet JWL-1440VS- A massive and stable lathe with a large machining zone, variator drive spindle and a powerful asynchronous motor, designed for continuous operation without interruptions to cooling. The model is the development of a well-proven machine JWL-1442, popular both with professionals and with fans of woodworking. The novelty feature is smooth, infinitely variable speed, spindle with M33x3.5 thread and desktop version (massive cast-iron feet for floor installation are sold as a optional extra). As an option, an extension of the frame is also supplied, and it can be mounted on two levels, which makes it possible to work with workpieces of increased diameter (it is implied that they are secured without the use of a tailstock). The construction of the pod is also adapted for such work. The front headstock can be moved along the bed and rotated by an angle of a multiple of 30 °. For fixing the pod and the positions of the front and rear headstock, convenient eccentric clamps meet. The machine is equipped with a dividing device for marking the workpiece and blocking the spindle when replacing the cartridge / faceplate. The spindle drive is carried out via a V-belt variator with a smooth (stepless) speed change. It is extremely important that the speed of rotation is changed right during operation, without turning off the machine. FEATURES: Massive cast iron frame and supporting legs (option) Swivel and movable headstock Hard fixation of the angles of rotation of the headstock through 30º V-belt drive variator Dividing device Eccentric fixation of the pod, front and tailstock
