The C6240C engine lathe is a high-precision, heavy-duty machine tool designed for professional metal turning and machining applications. Built with a robust cast iron bed and 360mm wide guideway, this lathe delivers exceptional rigidity and stability, minimizing vibration during heavy cutting operations and ensuring consistent machining accuracy.
It features a powerful 5.5/7.5KW main motor, supporting 12 spindle speeds ranging from 42 to 1600rpm, allowing users to adjust the speed according to different workpiece materials and cutting requirements.
Equipped with comprehensive threading capabilities, the C6240C supports 24 types of metric threads (0.25-14mm), 27 types of inch threads (2-40 TPI), and 16 types of module threads (0.25-3.5mm), making it ideal for manufacturing threaded parts, bolts, nuts, and other precision components. The lathe also offers a wide range of longitudinal and cross feed rates, with longitudinal feed ranging from 0.0832 to 4.6569mm/r and cross feed from 0.0480 to 2.6880mm/r, enabling precise control over cutting feed rates for different machining processes. With three optional workpiece lengths of 1000mm, 1500mm, and 2000mm, it is suitable for processing various sizes of metal parts, widely used in workshops, factories, and industrial metalworking environments.
