USED 1969 HARDINGE TBF-H

Hardinge TFB-H Super-Precision Toolroom LatheThe Hardinge TFB-H (Turning, Facing, and Boring) is the high-performance production sibling to the legendary HLV-H. Built on the same ultra-rigid chassis, this "Super-Precision" machine is engineered for high-accuracy applications where threading is not required. By removing the threading gearbox, Hardinge created a streamlined, robust powerhouse that maintains the tightest tolerances in the industry.Whether for a dedicated toolroom or high-precision second-operation work, the TFB-H offers the "feel" and repeatability that has made Hardinge the gold standard for over half a century.Machine HighlightsPrecision Foundation: Built on the famous HLV-H hardened and ground dovetail bed for maximum rigidity.Infinite Variable Speeds: Adjust spindle speeds from 125 to 3,000 RPM on the fly for the perfect surface finish.Independent Electric Feeds: Separate variable feed control for the carriage and cross slide allows for instant adjustments during the cut.Teflon Bearing Surfaces: Used between the carriage and bed to eliminate "stick-slip" for fine-increment moves.Comprehensive Tooling & Accessories PackageThis machine is offered as a "turn-key" solution, including a robust suite of essential precision tooling:The Primary Package:5C Lever-Type Collet Closer: The hallmark of the Hardinge system for rapid part loading.Complete 5C Collet Set: Range of sizes for immediate production capability.Quick-Change Tool Post: Aloris-style post including Turning, Facing, and Boring holders.Precision Tailstock: Features a #2 Morse Taper with heavy-duty tang drive.Work Holding & Accuracy:6" 3-Jaw Universal Chuck: Mounted on the Hardinge tapered spindle nose.Micrometer Carriage Stop: For precise, repeatable shoulder depths.Integrated Coolant System: High-flow pump and chip tray for thermal stability.SpecificationsSwing Over Bed: 11"Swing Over Carriage: 9" Distance Between Centers: 18"Spindle Speeds: 125 – 3,000 RPM (Variable)Spindle Nose: Hardinge TaperedHole Through Spindle: 1-1/4"Collet Capacity (5C)1-1/16" RoundPower Feed Range: 1/4" – 7" per minuteTailstock Taper: #2 Morse TaperMotor" 1.5 HP, 3-PhaseDealer Note: The TFB-H is the ideal choice for shops requiring HLV-H precision for second-operation work or high-tolerance turning without the maintenance of a complex threading gearbox. This unit has been inspected for spindle runout and bed wear to ensure it meets original Hardinge Super-Precision standards.65
