Brake Lathe Features and Benefits:

 Available with several tooling packages !!

  • One pass finish strength.  Insures a premium product in minimal machining time. This is our fastest brake lathe.

  • Independent feed motors provide maximum versatility and ease of use.

  • Dovetail way and adjustable construction. insures that you can maintain peak performance for  the life of the brake lathe.

  • Increased arbor speed. Turnaround time on rotors and drums is reduced to the lowest possible time without sacrificing surface finish or cutting tip life. Sure we could have gone faster, but we won't ever sacrifice the finish and quality machining capability you expect from Accu-turn by creating dazzling speed claims. We provide you with the best of both worlds. Reduced time and quality finish.              

  • Positive rake cutter tip angle. Provides for one pass finish virtually every time, allowing you to complete the work faster than multiple pass machining processes. Metal and heat come off the top of the tip as you machine allowing for one pass machining with virtually any depth of cut. Get it in, get it out faster then any brake lathe in the industry.

  • Dovetail Way and Adjustable Gibb Design. The most dependable repeat guidance system in the machining industry. Our brake lathe system provides for the ability to adjust out any tolerance increase caused by years of wear. Maintain factory tolerances for the life of the brake lathe. Dovetail ways are covered by stainless steel way covers for maximum performance.

  • Tapered Roller Bearing Spindle. The brake lathe spindle is supported by Timken tapered roller bearings for years of maintenance free turning, the same system that automotive spindles have relied on for years.

  • Massive lathe housing casting. Combining a total mass of 470 lbs and a solid table top platform design the 8920 brake lathe eliminates transient vibrations ensuring a smooth uninterrupted surface finish on every pass. Cutting platform actually sits in a 200 lb iron casting, not suspended on a support mechanism.

  • Independent AC feed motors. Utilizing independent feed motors for rotor and drum improves the brake lathe versatility to machine all varieties of drums and rotors. Through a separated switch wiring we substantially reduce the possibility of catastrophic operator error. Providing smooth, consistent feed, day in and day out for years.
