The Accu-turn model 8922L bench lathe incorporates Accu-turn’s legendary one cut finish performance with the simplicity and durability required for all levels of technicians. With a fixed feed speed and fixed arbor speed the 8922L produces superior surface finish, parallelism and flatness every time. Designed to handle virtually all passenger and light truck rotors, drums and flywheels the 8922L will handle all your machining needs.
Feature Benefit Overview
Positive rake cutter tip angle
Provides for one pass finish virtually every time, allowing you to complete the work faster than multiple pass machining processes. Metal and heat come off the top of the tip as you machine allowing for one pass machining with virtually any depth of cut. Get it in, get it out faster than any lathe in the industry.
Dovetail Way and Adjustable Gibb Design
The most dependable repeat guidance system in the machining industry. System provides for the ability to adjust out any tolerance increase caused by years of wear. Maintain factory tolerances for the life of the lathe. Dovetail ways are covered by stainless steel way covers for maximum performance.
Tapered Roller Bearing Spindle
The lathe spindle is supported by Timken tapered roller bearings for years of maintenance free turning, the same system that automotive spindles have relied on for years.
Massive lathe housing casting
Combining a total mass of 470 lbs and a solid table top platform design the 8922L eliminates transient vibrations ensuring a smooth uninterrupted surface finish on every pass. Cutting platform actually sits in a 200 lb iron casting, not suspended on a support mechanism.
Independent AC feed motors
Utilizing independent feed motors for rotor and drum improves the lathes versatility to machine all varieties of drums and rotors. Through a separated switch wiring we substantially reduce the possibility of catastrophic operator error. Providing smooth, consistent feed, day in and day out for years.
