A.I.S.1800 faceplate chuck.

Description

This is a lathe built for large machining of very large workpieces outside the scope of everyday turning operations. A modern machine to handle workpieces that this machine can handle would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
This machine could be set up and producing results for a relatively small cost.

A.I.S. Heavy Duty Facing Lathe

Stock No.: LC10177

Manufactured in Australia by A.I.S., this heavy-duty facing lathe has been purpose-built for machining large diameter components requiring exceptional rigidity and stability.

Unlike a conventional centre lathe, the A.I.S. Facing Lathe is designed specifically for turning, facing and boring large workpieces such as flanges, rings, fabricated components, pressure vessel parts, mining equipment and heavy engineering assemblies.

The machine features a substantial faceplate, twin independently adjustable tool slides and a robust cast iron bed, providing excellent support for heavy machining applications. Its simple, heavy-duty design makes it well suited to repair workshops, mining, fabrication, power generation and general engineering industries.

This machine presents in good original condition and offers an excellent opportunity to purchase a quality Australian-built heavy-duty facing lathe.
