LAGUNA REVO 12 X 16 LATHE

Laguna REVO 12|16 Midi Lathe

Bring smooth speed control, strong low-speed torque, and refined operation to your turning projects with the Laguna REVO 12|16 Midi Lathe. Powered by a 1HP DC permanent-magnet motor, this compact lathe uses Pulse Width Modulation control to maintain dependable torque throughout its speed range.

Three belt ranges provide electronic variable speed from 50 to 3,500 RPM, giving you the control needed for roughing, shaping, sanding, and detail work. The digital RPM readout makes it easy to monitor spindle speed, while forward and reverse spindle rotation adds flexibility for turning and finishing applications.

The REVO 12|16 offers 15.5 in. between centres and a 12-1/2 in. swing over the bed. For larger projects, its outboard turning capability accommodates workpieces up to 16 in. in diameter.

A tool-free, cam-action belt-change system allows fast range changes, while magnetic access-door latches simplify belt access. The 24-position indexing system includes a lock and transparent viewing window for controlled layout and decorative work.

Additional details include a hardened 1045 steel tool rest, a premium banjo with a 45-degree chamfered edge, MT2 spindle and tailstock tapers, an ACME-thread tailstock lead screw, onboard storage, and a solid 3-1/2 in. metal brake. The included drive centre, live centre, faceplate, and related accessories help you get started with a variety of turning projects.
