Overview

Gap lathes are specialized types of lathes that feature a removable gap section in the bed. This design allows for machining of larger diameter workpieces that wouldn't fit into a standard lathe. They are often used in metalworking and manufacturing industries to handle large, bulky parts with precision.

FAQ

What should I consider when buying a used gap lathe?

Check the overall condition, especially the removable gap section. Ensure the bed, headstock, and tailstock are in good shape and look for any signs of wear or damage. Verify the machine's precision and ask for maintenance records.

How do I ensure the gap lathe is shipped safely to my location?

Use a specialized machinery transport service. Make sure the lathe is properly disassembled, if necessary, and securely packed to prevent any damage during transit.
