THL-1550

THL-1550 Precision High Speed Lathe with Matrix Clutch

THL-1550 is another classic design from Europe. Its headstock clutch system is smooth, quick, and responsive. The headstock clutch is made by Matrix Engineering, UK, one of best headstock clutch manufacturers in the world . The THL-1550 has a headstock lubrication pump that continuously sprays the internal headstock to lubricate and cool the spindle assembly. The lubrication oil pressure flushing minimize the thermal expansion and increase the life span of the spindle and gears significantly. Still one of the most elegantly designed lathe on the market, the THL-1550 surely stands the test of time.
