The Sherline 17-Inch Benchtop Lathe with DRO (Metric) 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 that 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, the lathe is ideal for users seeking a compact yet powerful machine capable of producing high-quality precision parts. Despite its desktop size, it offers the precision and accuracy of a full-sized machine. The lathe is robust enough to handle materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The digital readout system enhances the machining experience by simplifying the tracking of distance and direction, thereby reducing the potential for errors and making the process more enjoyable.
The lathe is powered by a 90V DC motor with an electronic speed controller, ensuring smooth and variable spindle speeds ranging from 70 to 2800 RPM. The DRO power supply is designed to automatically switch between 120V and 240V, accommodating electrical standards in different countries. Users outside North America may require a wall socket adapter. The machine's design includes a 24-inch steel bed with a 17-inch distance between centers, providing ample space for various projects. The lathe's handwheels are equipped with laser-engraved aluminum collars and can be electronically reset to zero, further enhancing precision.
Note: Ensure proper electrical compatibility and use appropriate adapters when operating the lathe in regions with different voltage standards.
