Sherline 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe Package B CNC Ready (Metric) (EU)
Offers precise CNC-ready capabilities
Accommodates multiple materials
Designed with factory-installed motor mounts
Includes essential machining components
Customizable with additional CNC parts
The Sherline 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe Package B CNC Ready (Metric) (EU) is an exemplary tool for those seeking a compact yet highly precise CNC lathe for crafting small components. This benchtop lathe is engineered to deliver the precision and accuracy typically associated with full-sized machines, making it suitable for cutting a variety of materials including wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. The machine is designed with factory-installed stepper motor mounts, replacing traditional handwheels, and is prepared for the integration of 23-frame size stepper motors and computer numeric controls. It is important to note that this CNC-ready lathe requires the installation of stepper motors before it can be operational, as it does not include the motors, computer, or CNC software. Handwheels are provided for each axis, but they remain unusable until the stepper motors are installed.
The lathe is equipped with a robust 90V DC motor featuring an electronic speed controller, ensuring a wide range of spindle speeds. The machine's construction includes a 24-inch steel bed with a 17-inch distance between centers, providing ample space for various machining tasks. The lathe also features a 3.1-inch 3-jaw self-centering chuck, a 3/8-inch tailstock drill chuck with key, and a steady rest, among other components. The package includes a live center, a rear mount cutoff tool and holder, and a set of high-speed steel cutting tools, enhancing its versatility and functionality.
This lathe is an ideal choice for those who require a desktop-sized machine that does not compromise on precision or capability. It offers the flexibility to be customized with additional CNC components from Sherline or other aftermarket suppliers, allowing users to tailor the machine to their specific needs. The inclusion of a Sherline Accessories Shop Guide Book provides valuable insights and guidance for maximizing the lathe's potential.
Note: CNC-ready machines cannot be operated manually unless double-shaft stepper motors are installed.
