The Sherline 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe with DRO (Metric) (EU) is a precision-engineered machine designed for crafting small, intricate parts with high accuracy. This benchtop lathe is equipped with a digital readout (DRO) system, which includes a digital readout box and specialized handwheels with built-in electronic encoders. These components work together to provide precise measurements of table travel across three axes, enhancing the user's ability to maintain accuracy during machining tasks. The DRO system allows for the resetting of any axis to zero with a simple button press, and it continuously displays spindle RPM when the motor is operational. This feature is adaptable for both inch and metric measurements, making it versatile for various machining needs.
Constructed in the USA, this lathe is ideal for users seeking a compact yet powerful machine capable of producing high-quality precision parts. Despite its desktop size, it is robust enough to handle materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. The DRO system significantly simplifies the process of tracking distance and direction, reducing the likelihood of errors and enhancing the overall machining experience.
The lathe's power supply is designed to automatically switch between 120V and 240V, accommodating electrical systems in different regions. This adaptability ensures that the machine can be used internationally with minimal adjustments. The DRO handwheels are a notable feature, allowing for electronic zeroing, which aids in precise machining operations. The machine's design includes a 24-inch steel bed with a 17-inch distance between centers, providing ample space for various projects.
Note: Users may require a wall socket adapter when using the power supply outside North America.
