Baileigh Industrial PL-1340E-1 Heavy-Duty 13” x 40” Gear Head Engine Lathe BA1-11223

Description

The Baileigh PL-1340E-1.0 is a heavy-duty 13” x 40” gear head engine lathe engineered for production shops, maintenance departments, fabrication facilities, and technical training programs that demand reliable turning power with built-in safety and digital precision.

Designed to deliver consistent torque and smooth operation, this manual metal lathe combines geared-head performance with modern shop features including a 2-Axis SINO digital readout, integrated coolant containment, and CSA/UL electrical certification.

Whether you're upgrading an older belt-driven lathe or expanding your shop’s manual machining capacity, the PL-1340E-1 provides controlled power, increased bar capacity, and shop-ready safety features without unnecessary complexity.

Built for Performance and Control

Powered by a 2 HP, single-phase motor, the PL-1340E-1 offers 8 spindle speeds ranging from 70–2000 RPM, allowing operators to dial in the correct speed for heavy roughing or fine finishing.

A large 2” spindle bore increases through-spindle capacity, reducing secondary operations and expanding the range of workpieces you can machine efficiently.

The D1-5 spindle nose ensures secure chuck mounting and repeatable accuracy.

With a 16.9” swing over gap, this lathe provides added flexibility for larger diameter work 

Standard Safety & Compliance Package

The PL-1340E-1 comes equipped with integrated safety features designed for industrial and educational environments:

• Foot brake for rapid spindle stopping
• Chuck guard at the point of operation
• Lead screw cover for operator protection
• Full-length splash guard & chip tray to contain coolant and debris
• CSA/UL certified electrical system for compliance requirements 

These features make it suitable for regulated workplaces and vocational training programs.

Digital Precision Included

The included 2-Axis SINO Digital Readout (DRO) provides real-time X and Y axis feedback, helping operators:

• Hit dimensions faster
• Reduce manual measurement errors
• Minimize scrap
• Improve repeatability
