Conventional Universal Lathe CORMAK 500x1000
The CORMAK 500x1000 (CJ6250Cx1000) universal lathe is a robust and precise conventional metal lathe designed for professional use in industrial plants, toolrooms and maintenance workshops. Thanks to its high bed rigidity, modern drive system and versatile configuration, the machine ensures reliable and repeatable performance in both single-piece and serial production.
Main machine features
- Induction-hardened bed, resistant to torsion and vibration – ensures machining accuracy.
- Removable gap bridge – allows machining of workpieces up to 630mm in diameter.
- Modern spindle bearing system with ball bearings for stable operation at high speeds.
- Precise control of speeds and feeds – full command of machining parameters.
- Rapid longitudinal and cross feeds – increase productivity.
- 3-axis digital readout – enhances dimensional control and setup speed.
- Extensive threading capability – metric, inch, module and D.P. threads.
- Main motor 6kW – provides the power required for demanding operations.
Construction and technology
The CORMAK 500x1000 lathe has been designed for long-term industrial use. The 330mm-wide bed is induction-hardened, reducing wear and ensuring long-lasting geometric stability. The spindle with D1-8 CAMLOCK mount and 80mm bore allows quick chuck changeovers and secure clamping of large workpieces. The central feed selector system with leadscrew and feed shaft facilitates threading and improves safety during operation.
Precision and work efficiency
The CORMAK 500x1000 lathe performs a wide range of turning operations with consistent accuracy. Precision-ground guides, rapid feeds and a digital position readout significantly reduce setup and machining time. Smooth spindle speed transitions between 24–1600rpm enable efficient cutting of different materials, from structural steel to non-ferrous metals.
Applications
Thanks to its versatility, this lathe is ideal for:
- maintenance workshops – for machine and part repair,
- toolrooms – for precision tool and fixture production,
- serial production – manufacturing of repeatable components,
- training workshops – operator training on conventional lathes.
