The Sherline 8-Inch Tabletop Lathe Package C CNC Ready (Metric) is an exemplary machine designed for precision crafting of small parts. This lathe is particularly suitable for those requiring a compact yet highly accurate CNC-ready lathe for materials such as wood, plastic, aluminum, and steel. Manufactured in the USA, this desktop-sized lathe offers the precision and accuracy typically associated with full-sized machines, making it ideal for both light-industrial and home-shop applications.
This CNC-ready lathe comes equipped 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 while the lathe is CNC-ready, it is not operational until the stepper motors are installed. The inclusion of handwheels for each axis allows for manual control once dual-shaft stepper motors are applied.
The C Package of this lathe includes a comprehensive set of tools and accessories to enhance its functionality. Among these are a 2.5-inch 3-jaw self-centering chuck, a 1/4-inch tailstock drill chuck with key, a steady rest, a live center, and a compound slide. Additionally, it features a rear mount cutoff tool and holder, a 3-piece 1/4-inch high-speed steel cutting tool set, a 5/32-inch T-driver, a 3-piece center drill set, and a thread cutting attachment. The package also includes the Sherline Accessories Shop Guide Book, providing valuable insights and guidance for users.
The lathe is powered by a robust 90V DC motor with an electronic speed controller, ensuring a variable spindle speed range from 70 to 2800 RPM. This allows for precise control over the machining process, accommodating a wide range of materials and applications. The machine's design includes a 15-inch steel bed, allowing for an 8-inch distance between centers, and a swing over bed of 3.50 inches, providing ample space for various projects.
Note: CNC-ready machines cannot be operated manually unless double-shaft stepper motors are installed.
