Conventional Universal Lathe CORMAK TORNADO 460x2000 – precision and power for long workpieces

CORMAK TORNADO 460x2000 is a robust and accurate universal lathe designed for professional metalworking in industrial environments. With a turning length of 2000 mm and a spindle bore of ø82 mm, it is a reliable solution for producing shafts, sleeves, pipes, and long workpieces. This model combines high guideway precision, stable cast-iron construction, and versatile equipment to handle a wide range of machining operations.

Main advantages

• Versatile use: external, internal, and taper turning; metric, inch, module, and D.P. threading; drilling, broaching, and polishing.
• Distance between centres – 2000 mm: suitable for long shafts and pipes.
• Stable cast-iron bed 300 mm wide – hardened and ground to reduce vibration and ensure long service life.
• 2-axis digital readout – precision ensured by optical scales.
• 82 mm spindle bore – enables machining of large-diameter, long workpieces.
• Joystick-controlled rapid feed – reduces carriage travel time significantly.
• Direct thread cutting control – no need for gear changes.
• Thread dial indicator – allows quick and accurate carriage repositioning.
• Removable bed gap – for machining parts up to 690 mm in diameter.

Construction and technology

Turning on the CORMAK TORNADO 460x2000 lathe provides full operational control via an ergonomic control panel and a precision spindle assembly operating within a 25–2000 rpm speed range. The spindle gearbox, built with hardened and ground gears, ensures durability and quiet operation. The heavy cast-iron bed provides rigidity, accuracy, and vibration damping even during long-term use. Integrated coolant and work lighting systems improve operator comfort.

Precision and performance

This model supports a wide range of operations – from fine turning and drilling to threading – with minimal retooling. Its high accuracy and repeatability improve production efficiency while reducing errors and downtime.
