A fully-loaded, high-precision lathe in a relatively small footprint.
The South Bend SB1049F Gearhead Lathe is driven by a fixed-speed 3 HP motor with convenient headstock levers to control the 8 spindle speeds between 80–2000 RPM.
The spindle has D1-5 camlocks with an MT#5 taper, 1.57" bore, and equipped with Japanese NSK or NTN bearings. The tailstocks have an MT#3 taper and 4.5" of quill travel.
A factory-installed Fagor two-axis digital readout displays the X- and Y-positioning of the carriage and cross slide.
The bed of the lathe is constructed with Meehanite® castings that are hardened and precision-ground in the traditional three V-way prismatic design.
Quality Allen-Bradley® electrical components and attention to detail provide dependable electrical control of the powered movements.
And finally, this lathe comes with a circulating coolant system.
The SB1049F is covered by a South Bend 2-year warranty covering parts and factory defects. Tooling and other lathe-related consumables are not covered by this warranty.
The SB1049F manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department and is packed with useful information.
Parts may be available online and shipped from the South Bend parts warehouse in Springfield, MO.
