Technical Description
The C6150-1500 is a heavy-duty, high-precision manual lathe engineered for industrial metalworking workshops, tool rooms, and manufacturing facilities. Designed for heavy cutting and long-term stable operation, this lathe integrates turning, threading, boring, and facing functions, making it an ideal solution for processing shaft parts, disc parts, and complex metal components.
Built with a 400mm wide cast iron bed that has undergone stress relief treatment, the C6150-1500 delivers exceptional rigidity and vibration resistance, ensuring long-term machining accuracy even under heavy load. With a maximum swing over bed of 500mm, a maximum workpiece length of 1500mm, and a swing over cross slide of 300mm, it can handle large-diameter and long-axis workpieces, expanding its application scope in various industries.
The spindle system is the core of its performance: equipped with an 82mm large spindle bore, Morse Taper No.6 taper, and C8 spindle nose, it supports high-torque transmission and stable rotation. The 32-step spindle speed (24 forward / 8 reverse) covers a wide range from 11-1400 r/min (forward) to 18-1250 r/min (reverse), allowing operators to optimize cutting parameters for different materials, from soft aluminum to hard alloy steel. For thread processing, the lathe offers an industry-leading range: 46 types of metric threads, 47 types of inch threads, 42 types of module threads, and 53 types of DP threads, meeting the diverse thread processing needs of automotive, aerospace, and mechanical parts manufacturing.
Powered by a 7.5kW main motor, the C6150-1500 delivers strong cutting power for both roughing and finishing operations. The feeding system features 48 standard and fine feed ranges for both longitudinal and cross movement, with a longitudinal rapid traverse speed of 3.9m/min and cross rapid traverse of 1.35m/min, significantly improving operational efficiency. The compound slide and cross slide have a travel of 100mm and 290mm respectively, supporting complex contour turning and multi-angle processing. The tailstock is equipped with a φ75mm quill (Morse Taper No.5, 150mm max travel), providing reliable support for long workpiece processing and enhancing machining stability.
Designed for user-friendly operation, the lathe comes with an ergonomic control panel, clear operation handles, and a compact structural layout that saves workshop space. The 25*25mm tool shank cross-section ensures stable tool clamping, reducing tool wear and improving processing precision. With a net weight of approximately 2600kg and overall dimensions of 3150*1150*1350mm, it is easy to install and maintain, making it a cost-effective choice for small and medium-sized enterprises.

Safety Notices
Ensure the power supply matches the machine's rated voltage (7.5kW), and use a certified three-core power cable to reduce fire hazard risks.
Connect the power cable correctly: brown wire for live, blue wire for neutral, yellow-green wire for ground. Never miswire to prevent motor damage.
Ensure no exposed copper wires at power terminals to avoid short circuits; regularly check the wiring harness for wear and aging.
Disconnect the power supply before installation, commissioning, tool change, or maintenance; wait 10 minutes after power-off to discharge the motor before inspection.
Install the lathe on a flat, solid foundation, and use anchor bolts to fix it to prevent vibration during operation; keep the workshop well-ventilated and free of dust.
Before formal use, add lubricating oil to the spindle, guide rails, and feed mechanisms according to the user manual, and run the machine idling for 10 minutes to check for abnormal noise or temperature.
Wear personal protective equipment (safety goggles, gloves, protective clothing) during operation; avoid wearing loose clothing or jewelry that may get caught in moving parts.
Regularly clean the chip removal system and guide rails; avoid using compressed air to blow chips directly at the spindle or motor to prevent damage.
