SDVEDON Launches CD6260B/1500 Gap Bed Lathe for Heavy-Duty & Precision Metal Turning

Shandong Vedon Machinery Equipment Co., Ltd (SDVEDON), a China-based professional manufacturer of metalworking machine tools, officially rolls out the CD6260B/1500 gap bed engine lathe. Built with a heavy-duty cast iron structure and versatile machining capabilities, this model is engineered for small-to-medium machining workshops, hardware fabrication shops and equipment maintenance stations, delivering stable precision and cost efficiency for daily turning operations.

Heavy-Duty Gap Bed Design for Maximum Machining Flexibility

The CD6260B/1500 features a classic saddle gap bed structure, which greatly expands its adaptability to workpieces of different sizes. It supports a maximum swing over bed of 600mm, a maximum swing over slide of 360mm, and a maximum swing over gap of 730mm with 260mm effective gap length. With a maximum workpiece cutting length of 1500mm, it handles both long shaft parts and large-diameter disc/flange workpieces efficiently.

The 330mm-wide integral cast iron bed ensures outstanding structural rigidity and vibration damping performance, maintaining stable cutting accuracy even under heavy load conditions.

High-Performance Spindle System for Wide Material Compatibility

Equipped with a precision-ground spindle, the CD6260B/1500 comes with a φ65mm spindle bore, ISO-D6 spindle nose and 1:20 spindle taper. It offers 15 spindle speeds ranging from 22 to 1800 rpm, covering low-speed heavy cutting and high-speed finishing. This makes the machine suitable for processing steel, cast iron, copper, aluminum and other common metal materials.

Rich Thread Functions & Stable Feed System

This lathe is equipped with a complete feed system to support diverse machining processes:

  • Longitudinal feed range: 0.072 – 4.038 mm
  • Cross feed range: 0.036 – 2.019 mm
  • Cross slide travel: 300mm; compound rest travel: 130mm
  • Tool shank size: 25×25mm

For thread machining, it covers 66 types of metric threads (0.5–28mm), 66 types of inch threads (1–56 TPI) and 33 types of module threads (0.5–3.5), meeting most thread processing demands in mechanical and automotive parts production without complicated gear replacement.

Reliable Supporting Configuration
  • Tailstock: MT5 taper sleeve with φ65mm diameter and 120mm travel, providing stable support for long workpieces.
  • Power unit: 7.5kW main motor delivers strong power for continuous heavy cutting; a 0.125kW coolant pump is equipped to reduce tool wear and improve surface finish.
