The Craftex CX-Series CX615 16" x 20" Mill Lathe Combination brings turning, drilling, and milling capabilities together in one space-saving metalworking machine with two independent 3/4 HP motors. Read Less
Designed for hobbyists and experienced metalworkers alike, the CX615 combines a 16" swing metal lathe with a versatile milling head. The lathe provides 20" between centres, a 1-1/8" spindle bore, seven spindle speeds, and hardened and ground bed ways for dependable turning performance.
The milling section operates with its own independent motor and offers 16 spindle speeds from 120 to 3,000 RPM. It can handle drilling, end milling, and face milling operations, while the milling head can be unlocked and rotated away to provide additional clearance when using the lathe.
Magnetic forward and reverse switches, separate motors for each function, and a practical selection of included workholding and tooling accessories make the CX615 a versatile solution for workshops where space is limited.
