Jet 3520B Heavy Duty Woodturning Lathe

The Jet 3520B lathe is equipped with precision ground bed ways and the headstock and tailstock are 13mm thick cast iron with positive cam action locking devices. The heavy-duty cast iron headstock is designed to travel up and down the entire length of the bed of the lathe. Spindle speeds can be varied from 50-1200 rpm for low speed and 125-3200 rpm for high speed and are controlled by the inverter (Electronic Variable Speed) allowing infinite speed adjustment within the tool's range monitored by the direct digital readout spindle rpm indicator mounted at the front of the headstock making it more convenient for all kinds of turning work. The safety spindle lock makes it easier to remove the faceplates and chuck and the headstock, built with index lock, offers 36 index stops (10°) on the spindle. The 2-step, 10 groove Poly-V belt transmits full power from the motor to the spindle at all speeds while providing extra long belt life and smooth running. Equipped with ergonomic handles allowing easy lifting of motor for speed change. The remote ON/OFF switch can be optimally adjusted for operator convenience. Supplied with a comparator centre for copy work. The 460mm bed extension is available as an optional extra.
