Lathes for Metalworking

Applications of lathes

Lathes are machines used for the machining of various materials, mainly metals. The construction of a lathe consists of several components: headstock, bed, carriage, tailstock and drive mechanism. The headstock is where the workpiece is mounted, while the bed serves as a rigid base for the entire machine, ensuring its stability. The carriage enables the tool to move along the material, and the tailstock supports the workpiece during machining.

Lathes are used in many branches of industry. They are employed for turning — shaping workpieces into rotational forms by removing excess material. Common operations performed on lathes include external and internal turning, threading, drilling and cutting. In the automotive, aerospace, energy and tooling industries, lathes are indispensable, ensuring high precision and repeatability of manufactured parts.

Types of lathes available in our store

The CORMAK range includes a wide variety of lathes adapted to different needs and technological requirements. We offer machines for both hobby use and professional industrial applications.

Centre lathes

CORMAK centre lathes are an ideal choice when you need to efficiently machine various internal and external surfaces. Such machines are useful for threading, polishing, drilling or broaching materials. Our store offers a wide range of these machines, so you can easily select them according to turning diameter (up to 360 mm, from 400 to 500 mm, above 500 mm). Centre lathes offer great flexibility and are indispensable for diverse workshop applications.

Vertical lathes

The vertical lathes available in our range are machines designed for machining large and heavy components with large diameters. They are characterised by the vertical arrangement of the spindle, which allows for stable clamping and precise machining of large parts. Ideal for heavy industry applications where high precision and reliability are required.

Combination lathe-milling machines

The combination of two machines in one unit offers convenience and space savings in the workspace. Lathe-milling machines allow both turning and milling operations, making them versatile tools in any workshop. They enable the execution of complex machining tasks without the need to change workstations.

Optional accessories

We also offer a wide selection of optional accessories that increase the functionality of our lathes. The range includes grinding attachments for shafts and holes, taper turning attachments, as well as turning tools, inserts, centres, toolposts, lathe and drill chucks, and quick-change turrets. These and other accessories make it possible to adapt the machine to specific production requirements, increasing its efficiency and precision.
