NEW PRECISION MATTHEWS MACHINERY CO PM-1228VF-LBW/2AXDRO

PM-1228VF-LB Main Features
D1-4 CAMLOCK SPINDLE MOUNT, with LARGE 1.5” Spindle Bore, Best in class for universal chuck mounting, and the ability to accept larger diameter work that can pass through the spindle for much easier setup
NOW WITH DIAL SPEED CHANGES FOR EASIER OPERATION
Large Morse Taper #3 bore in tail stock, to allow for larger accessories and more gripping power for those tough drilling jobs, yet you can just use a reducing sleeve for smaller MT accessories
Power feed on Carriage and Cross Slide, both left and right, and in and out, for both turning and facing operations with automatic feed. Allows for the best surface finish in all directions.
Variable Spindle Speeds from 50-2000 RPM in 2 Steps to provide more torque at low speeds, and the ability to perfectly match the speed for the job for increased cutting tool life and better surface finishes
2 HP BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR, for better torque, and best reliability during long term use
Rigid Cast Iron Construction, for deeper cuts, and more vibration dampening
Induction Hardened and Precision Ground Bed Ways to resist wear and give a long service life
All gears and shafts in headstock hardened and precision ground for long life and quieter running
High quality electronics used throughout machine
Slip Clutch on feed rod, to help prevent overloading damage of feeds and allow the use of a solid carriage stop for repetitive work
Precision Tapered Roller Bearings used in spindle, for the ultimate in long life, high precision, and best surface finishes
Inch AND Metric thread cutting ability is a standard feature, with many quick change threads for less change gears. 15 different threads or feeds can be cut with one gear setup. Many less gears to change compared to others in this class
TRUE INCH PITCH cross feed, tailstock, and compound slide lead screws are 10 TPI, which make it easier to use for the INCH measurement System, yet still has the Metric readings on dials for the ultimate in versatility for any job that may come about. Main lead screw is 8 TPI for threading
Splash oil bath lubrication in Thread/Feed Gearbox, for efficient lubrication, and long life, especially compared to traditional open-non lubricated Thread/Feed Gearbox design, yet simple and reliable, and does not require any filter changes or pump maintenance as with oil pump lubrication systems. Also no risk of losing oil flow to expensive parts as there can be with pump lubricated systems
Longest in class, 3 Year Warranty for added peace of mind
