Industrial metal lathe CORMAK TORNADO 460x1500 – featuring a double-thickness casting and a robust cast-iron bed structure, equipped with a 12-speed gearbox and a powerful 5.5 kW / 400V induction motor delivering maximum torque and a large 82 mm spindle bore. Recommended for machining hard steels and precision turning. Suitable for internal and external turning, taper turning, polishing, metric and inch threading, drilling, and broaching. Includes two lathe chucks, a set of turning tools, and a live centre.
CORMAK TORNADO 460x1500 is a robust conventional universal lathe designed for a wide range of precision metalworking tasks. With a large distance between centres of 1500mm and an ø82mm spindle bore, the lathe is ideally suited for machining long shafts, pipes and larger workpieces. The machine is a reliable solution for industry, toolrooms, technical service workshops and technical schools.
The lathe has been designed for many years of intensive operation. The machine, weighing 2445kg, is built on a heavy monolithic cast-iron bed, providing high rigidity and resistance to deformation. Precision guideways, accurately machined carriage components and a reliable 5.5kW spindle drive ensure accuracy even during many hours of operation with large workpieces. Work lighting and the coolant system improve operator comfort.
Thanks to the digital readout and precisely calibrated guideways, the operator has full control over the turning process. The wide spindle speed range (25–2000rpm) allows optimum cutting parameters to be selected for different materials. A turning length of up to 1500mm provides full flexibility in selecting production tasks.
