This 2008 Weiler E 90 X 3000 is a German-built heavy-duty, long-bed lathe designed for demanding turning work on long shafts, rollers, and large components where rigidity and accuracy matter. The “X 3000” configuration denotes the extended between-centers capacity, making it a strong fit for applications such as power generation, pump and motor shafts, large bushings, heavy repair, and general job-shop turning that exceeds the reach of standard engine lathes. The enclosed headstock and industrial guarding help provide a safer operating environment, while the substantial bed and carriage assembly are intended to deliver stable cutting performance under heavier chip loads.
With a large swing class (estimated ~900 mm typical of the E 90 series), this machine is positioned for workpieces that require both diameter capacity and length. The overall layout—long precision bed, tailstock support for shaft stability, and a heavy-duty headstock—supports common operations including roughing and finishing, facing, OD/ID turning, and long-part support using centers. Electrical details on the nameplate indicate a 400V supply, 24V DC control voltage, and a connected load of 55 kVA, aligning with a serious industrial platform intended for continuous shop use. If you need a long-bed lathe for large components and want proven German manufacturing quality in a used machine, the Weiler E 90 X 3000 is a compelling option.
