Description

Reliability and performance with a legendary name in machine tools! Try the LeBlond RKL1300 series lathe with a 14″ swing in diameter and 32″, 40″ or 60″ distance between centers.

Heavy Duty Spindle

The headstock spindle is machined from forged alloy steel. It is hardened, ground and dynamically balanced.  Large through hole with convenient D1-6 cam-lock mount.  Special attention was given to lubrication channels providing a constant bath of oil to the supporting high grade two precision tapered roller and one precision ball bearing for long life.

Variable Speed Spindle with Electronic Control

Two headstock gear ranges that supply a high torque in low range (20 to 400 RPM) and in high range (40 to 2500 RPM). The electronic control panel that is mounted above the headstock provides a RPM LED display, ON-OFF power indicator light, speed control knob, emergency stop push button and spindle jogging push button. The electronic infinitely variable speed is controlled by an AC inverter duty motor. A 1/4HP electric pump provides the headstock with forced pressure lubrication.

Wide Bed with One Piece Base

One-piece machine floor base is made of solid cast iron. Wide bed design is made of Meehanite casting that is vibration stress relieved. Bed ways are induction hardened to HRC 50 and precision ground. Precision hand scraped bed is designed with a removable gap further expanding swing capabilities. The proven LeBlond 2V and flat solid bed structure provides rigidity that assures accuracy and maximum stability.  Standard large volume removable chip tray makes for easy chip clean out and disposal.

Newall Digital Readout System (Installed)

This system is designed to measure the linear movement of machine axes, typically the X and Z ones, to provide faster, more accurate and more consistent readings and eliminate the need for manual calculations.

5C Front D1-6 Mounted Handwheel Collet Closer

Consists of a collet chuck, drawtube and handwheel that work together to clamp and hold the workpiece in place on smaller machines. The collet closer is designed to fit onto the lathe machine’s D1-6 spindle nose to provide a high level of accuracy and repeatability.

5C Round Collet Set, 1/16” 1-1/16” (1/16”) 17pc

A set of collets using the imperial system to hold and clamp workpieces. This set offers a wide range of collet sizes to accommodate a variety of workpiece sizes and shapes.

5C Round Collet Set, 3mm 27 (1mm), 25pc

A set of collets using the metric system to hold and clamp workpieces. This set offers a wide range of collet sizes to accommodate a variety of workpiece sizes and shapes.

CXA Series Tool Post with 4 Holders

A tool post mounts on the lathe’s compound rest and includes four holders (turning & facing holder; a boring, turning & facing holder; a boring bar holder and a universal parting blade holder). Recommended for a lathe swing between 13-18.”

4MT Super Precision Live Center

Consists of a rotating center mounted on a spindle for smaller machines. Fits into the tailstock to reduce deflection, reduce vibration and improve chip removal for overall accuracy during cutting.

4MT Keyless Drill Chuck & Arbor

A tool that securely holds cutting tools without the need for a key. Connects to the lathe via a 4 Morse Taper arbor, facilitating precise drilling operations.

8″ 3‐Jaw SETRITE Chuck with D1‐6 Adapter Plate

Consists of three jaws that are adjusted using a chuck key and allow the chuck to be easily attached and removed from the machine. Typically used to hold cylindrical workpieces on smaller machines.

10″ 4‐Jaw Independent Chuck, D1‐6 Mount

A 10″ 4-Jaw Independent Chuck where each jaw is individually adjustable, allowing a square component to be perfectly centered for maximum gripping force.
