Jet E-1440VS With ACU-RITE 303 DRO With Taper & Collet Closer (892464)

The Jet E-1440VS With ACU-RITE 303 DRO With Taper & Collet Closer (892464) is a versatile engine lathe designed for small shops, labs, and educational settings. Despite its compact footprint, it packs powerful features for professional-grade machining.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Powerful and Compact: The 3 HP motor delivers ample power for various metalworking projects, while the space-saving design makes it ideal for workshops with limited floor space.
• Precise Control: The variable speed inverter drive system allows for infinitely adjustable spindle speeds (0-2200 RPM) for optimal cutting speeds on different materials. The ACU-RITE 303 DRO (Digital ReadOut) ensures precise positioning for accurate machining.
• Smooth Operation: Hardened and ground gears minimize vibration for smooth operation, while the ball-bearing mounted steady and follow rests ensure smooth material movement during turning.
• Versatility: The included taper attachment and collet closer expand the lathe's capabilities for working with a wider range of tooling and bar stock.
• Durable Construction: The lathe features a heavy-duty stand and certified Meehanite castings for lasting rigidity and dimensional stability.
• Safety Features: The electromagnetic brake provides rapid stopping power, and the chuck guard enhances operator safety. The CSA / CUS certification ensures the lathe meets safety standards.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Swing over bed: 14"
• Distance between centers: 40"
• Spindle bore: 1-1/2"
• Motor: 3 HP, 230V, 3-Phase
• Overall dimensions (L x W x H): 77" x 30" x 58"
• Weight: 1653 lbs

HOW TO USE:

1. Setup: Secure the workpiece in the chuck or between the centers. Mount the appropriate cutting tool in the tool post.
2. Power On and Speed Selection: Turn on the lathe and adjust the spindle speed using the variable speed control knob or digital readout according to the material and desired cutting operation.
3. Engaging the Feed: Engage the longitudinal or cross feed levers to move the cutting tool against the workpiece at the desired feed rate for turning or facing operations.
4. Machining: Guide the cutting tool along the workpiece to achieve the desired shape and dimensions. Refer to machining tables and guides for recommended speeds and feeds for specific materials.
5. Safety: Always wear safety glasses and appropriate attire while operating the lathe. Use the chuck guard and follow safe machining practices.
