                        SB1015F 16" x 60" EVS Toolroom Lathe with Fagor DRO
As the name implies, the South Bend 16" x 60" EVS Toolroom Lathe feature EVS (Electronic Variable-Speed) spindle control, which allows the operator to quickly set the exact spindle speed within the available range of 20–2500 RPM.
Spindle speed is displayed on a Fagor digital readout and controlled within each speed range with the use of a dial—no changing gears or looking up complex lever positions on a chart.
The beds of these lathes are constructed with Meehanite® castings that have been precision hardened and ground in the traditional 3-V prismatic design—long used on South Bend Lathes for its accuracy, durability and rigidity.
The headstock features quick-change gear levers and an adjustable clutch mechanism for the feed rod that can be set to prevent damage in the event of a crash.
To further ensure a high degree of accuracy, these lathes are equipped with NSK or NTN spindle bearings.
The SB1015F manual was written by our U.S.-based Technical Documentation Department.
All South Bend lathes come with a 2-year warranty which covers parts and assures the unit is free from factory defects.
The South Bend Technical Support team is U.S.-based. Parts for the lathe may be available online and shipped from the parts warehouse in Springfield, MO.
