Angada Light Duty Lathe Machine 6 feet - 325mm Swing - 1HP

About this product

The Angada Light Duty Lathe 6' is engineered for precision work where space and power infrastructure are constraints, but accuracy cannot be compromised. At 625kg with a compact 1825 mm bed, this machine occupies the critical middle ground between hobbyist benchtop units and industrial heavy-duty lathes that require reinforced flooring and three-phase power supply. Precision Engineering Highlights: Gunmetal (Bronze) Leadscrew Nut & Dial Rings: Unlike standard cast iron components that develop backlash over time, the gunmetal nut maintains zero play for years, ensuring thread pitch accuracy remains consistent through heavy use (Page 5, Brochure). 38mm Spindle Bore: Accepts standard commercial bar stock up to 38mm diameter without pre-machining, reducing material waste on small-batch jobs. MT-3 Tailstock Taper: Industry-standard Morse Taper #3 compatibility ensures your existing dead centers and live centers fit without adapter hassles. Single-Phase 1HP Motor: Operates on standard 220V domestic supply—no industrial three-phase connection required, making it ideal for workshops in commercial complexes or educational institutions with standard electrical infrastructure.

Application

1. Education (ITI/Polytechnic) Target: Mechanical fitter and turner students. Key Advantage: The 1HP motor is powerful enough for standard curriculum (M12-M24 threading/tapering) but safe for beginners. Its 500kg weight ensures stability on standard floors. 2. Maintenance & Repair Target: Automotive, agricultural, and factory repair shops. Key Advantage: The 720mm center distance fits 90% of common parts (pump shafts, rotors) while the compact design allows it to pass through standard 3-foot doorways. 3. R&D & Prototyping Target: Labs and fabrication startups. Key Advantage: Gunmetal leadscrews provide the precision needed for custom fixtures and small-batch spindles without occupying excessive floor space. 4. Small Fabrication Units Target: Local job shops working with steel and aluminum. Key Advantage: A cost-effective entry point for precision machining. Constraint: Best for shifts under 6 hours and materials below 45 HRC.
