Universal lathes for multiple applications

A metal lathe is a tool suitable for both small workshops and large industrial plants. A universal lathe is a machine designed for machining various materials, particularly metals. It is a horizontal lathe whose structure consists of a headstock, bed, carriage, tailstock and drive mechanism. The headstock holds the workpiece, while the bed forms the base that ensures the stability of the entire structure. The carriage allows for precise movement of the tools along the material, and the tailstock supports the workpiece during machining.

Centre lathes are used for many tasks such as internal and external turning, taper turning, metric, imperial and module threading, drilling and broaching. They are used in the automotive, aerospace, energy and tooling industries, where high precision and repeatability of components are essential.

Types of centre lathes available in our store

Our range includes a wide selection of centre lathes tailored to various needs and applications. We offer lathes with different turning diameters, allowing you to perfectly match the machine to specific machining tasks.

Centre lathes up to 360 mm

Centre lathes with a turning diameter up to 360 mm are an excellent choice for small industrial plants, workshops and garages. Even the smallest lathes in our range are solid, durable and precise, equipped with gear-driven or inverter-controlled drives with induction motors for maximum torque. They are recommended for machining hard steels and mechanical turning. The higher torque ensures top-quality threading and contributes to longer and more efficient daily operation.

Centre lathes from 400 to 500 mm

Lathes with a turning diameter from 400 to 500 mm are ideal for repair and toolmaking workshops. These machines are designed for more advanced machining operations requiring high precision and reliability. Perfect for serial production, they guarantee repeatability and accuracy of the manufactured parts.

Centre lathes from 560 to 660 mm

Lathes with a turning diameter from 560 to 660 mm are dedicated to machining larger and heavier components. They are used in large production and industrial facilities where high performance and precision are required. Thanks to their robust design, these machines ensure stability and accuracy even when processing large workpieces.

Centre lathes above 800 mm

Centre lathes with a turning diameter above 800 mm are machines designed for the heaviest machining tasks. They are used in heavy industry, where very large components must be processed. These machines are characterised by exceptional strength, precision and reliability, making them indispensable in the most demanding production conditions.
