Performance & Engineering Controls
- Electronic Variable Speed with LED Readout: Allows operators to instantly dial in the exact RPM needed without stopping to shift mechanical gears, maximizing cutting efficiency and tool life.
- Class 7 Tapered Roller Bearings: Supports the D1-4 spindle with extreme precision, ensuring a highly accurate maximum runout of just .0004 inches.
- Backlash Elimination System: Integrated into both the compound and cross slide to ensure tight, predictable tool positioning during critical finishing passes.
- Meehanite Castings & V-Way Bed: The induction hardened, ground V-way bed (7.48" wide) and premium Meehanite cast stand retain tight tolerances and resist deflection over years of heavy machining.
- Patented Electronic Chuck Key Docking Station: Enhances shop floor safety by completely disabling machine startup until the chuck key is safely docked.
Why Invest in This Premium Turning Center
- The two-speed EVS gearbox provides the high torque needed for low-speed roughing and the high RPM needed for fine finishing in a single setup.
- Independent lead screw and feed rod configurations ensure smooth, consistent power feeds without excessive wear on threading components.
- Features an apron-mounted actuation control and jog button for intuitive, ergonomic operation during complex setups.
- Arrives with heavy-duty practical upgrades, including a full-length splash guard, front removable chip tray, and an integrated locking tool storage cabinet.
The JET EVS-1440B Bench Lathe combines advanced electronic speed control with world-class mechanical precision to elevate your toolroom's capabilities.
