Basic 180 V

SKU : 300807

Basic 180 V is one of the heaviest machines in this popular market segment. With a bed width of 206 mm (8 in) and a 30 percent higher total weight, its solid construction has a positive effect on the processing quality. This lathe also enables heavier machining operations that meet industrial requirements. Equipped with an inverter, it can easily reach 3,000 revolutions per minute. The constant cutting speed function also ensures surface qualities comparable to that of a CNC lathe when facing.
