EGH-1740 With ACU-RITE 203 DRO With Taper Attachment

Dependable, reliable, and high - quality. The Elite Geared Head Lathes blend the durability and strength of Meehanite® castings with precision engineering, churning out top - notch components turn after turn. With CNC - style lighting, the enclosed full - length splash guard is ingeniously designed to keep all chips and coolant in place. Hardened and ground bedways and gears minimize vibration and deflection, ensuring accurate longitudinal movements. A universal gearbox allows for a wide array of threading without gear changes, and Turcite - B coatings between the bed and carriage ensure smooth and accurate movement. These machines offer the perfect combination of performance and reliability expected from JET Elite.

Using your Elite Geared Head Lathe EGH - 1740 is straightforward. First, make sure the machine is properly powered on according to the voltage requirements (230V 3Ph or 460V 3Ph). Adjust the spindle speed within the range of 36 - 1,800 RPM to suit your task. Select the appropriate threading option from the available inch or metric threads. When using the compound slide, keep in mind its travel limit of 6 - 2/7 inches. Always use the right tool size (max 1 x 1 inches) for the job. Remember, this product is marked with Prop 65 warning for cancer and reproductive harm, so take necessary safety precautions. For maintenance, regularly check the bedways and gears. Keep them clean and lubricated to reduce wear and maintain accuracy. Also, ensure the splash guard is in good condition to contain chips and coolant effectively. If you notice any unusual vibrations or deflections, stop using the machine and have it inspected.
