Compact yet powerful, the Elite EVS lathes are a masterpiece. They cram large - scale features into a small footprint, making them ideal for schools, small workshops, and engineering labs. These lathes are truly elite, featuring certified Meehanite® castings, an electromagnetic brake, a three - jaw chuck, ball - bearing - mounted steady and follow rests, and CNC Style Lighting with an enclosed splash guard. They are also CSA/CUS Certified.
Key features include a 4 - Position Carriage Stop for precise positioning. Chuck guards come standard on all ELITE lathes to boost safety. The front - facing chip pan allows easy chip removal from the front of the machine. Hardened and ground gears in the headstock minimize vibration and deflection. The inverter drive system offers infinitely variable spindle speeds, and the LED RPM readout enables precise turning speeds. A two - speed gearbox provides a wide range of speeds from 40 - 365 RPM (low) to 165 - 2000 RPM (high).
