Description
The Jet E-1340VS W/ ACU-RITE 203 CSS DRO W/ Taper & Collet Closer (892410) is a heavy-duty engine lathe designed for professional and hobbyist use in schools, small machine shops, and engineering labs. Despite its compact footprint, this lathe packs features typically found on larger models, making it a versatile and space-saving solution.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Powerful and Precise: 3 HP, 3-phase motor with variable inverter drive system delivers a wide range of spindle speeds (0-2,200 RPM) for tackling various metalworking projects. The ACU-RITE 203 CSS DRO digital readout ensures accurate positioning for consistent results.
- Durable Construction: Built with rigid Meehanite® castings to minimize vibration and maintain precise tolerances. The hardened and ground gears in the headstock further reduce deflection for smooth operation.
- Versatility and Control: Two-speed gearbox allows for low speeds (40-365 RPM) for high-torque applications and high speeds (165-2,000 RPM) for faster cutting. The MT-5 spindle taper with sleeve offers compatibility with a wide range of tooling, while the collet closer provides secure holding of round stock.
- Safety and Convenience: Electromagnetic brake ensures rapid stopping for increased safety. The enclosed full-length splash guard with CNC-style lighting keeps your workspace clean and well-lit. The chip pan allows for easy removal of metal shavings.

HOW TO USE:
- Installation: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper setup and safety precautions. Ensure the lathe is level and securely mounted on a stable surface. Connect the lathe to the appropriate power source (230V, 3-phase).
- Material Preparation: Secure your workpiece in the lathe chuck or between centers, depending on the machining operation. Ensure proper centering and tightening for safety and accuracy.
- Speed and Feed Selection: Choose the appropriate spindle speed and feed rate based on the material, tooling, and desired finish. Refer to machining charts or consult a qualified machinist for guidance.
- Machining: Engage the spindle and start the cutting process. Use the carriage, cross slide, and compound slide to control the toolpath and create the desired features on your workpiece.
- Safety: Always wear appropriate safety gear, including eye protection, gloves, and respirator when operating the lathe. Be mindful of loose clothing or jewelry that could get caught in the machinery.
