This mini lathe features a high torque brushless DC 500W motor which is very quiet and powerful in operation. Because the motor has ample torque at low speed there in no need for a gearbox, a super smooth belt drive transferring power to the spindle, the spindle speed being selected by a simple control knob. The electronic control system ensures controlled starting and stopping to reduce the strain on the drive train. Constructed almost entirely of cast iron with ground bedways, and having a fully featured saddle and carriage assembly, a tailstock with spindle taper turning capability and a variable speed spindle drive, giving a stepless speed range of 100-2,500 rpm. A powered leadscrew with a change wheel set gives metric thread range of 0.4-2.0mm pitch. This lathe is supplied with an oil tray, splash guard, 3 jaw self centring chuck, electrically interlocked chuck guard, change wheel set, 2MT centre and wrench set. Optional extras include an ER32 collets holder, a four jaw independent chuck and a plug-in spindle speed display. An excellent choice for the enthusiastic model engineer. Maximum 8mm shank tooling.

Fantastic service and amazing machine
So bought very similar machine from Axminster directly, model S02.I wouldn't being bother about feedback on Amazon but I feel I have a duty to do so. What a fantastic service from Axminster I experienced. After initial problem when machine had to go back to their warehouse for inspection it turned out it was my fault. Not only they did not charged me for all hassle but explained few bits associated to operation of that lathe and managed to send it back to me within 24 hours. I thought it will take weeks to solve the problem but actually took 4 days before machine was finally back at my workshop in fully working order.It pays to pay a bit more but have a peace of mind , that if anything happens you have seller on your site, professional service and spare parts provided.Special thank you to Billy from tech service who was all the way with me and arranged speedy delivery back to me.I will be for sure coming back for more.machine itself is of a very good quality and precision is first class. Runs smooth and I hope it will last decades.Well done guys!
