16" x 40" Lg Spindle Bore Gear Head Lathe w/ NMS800, CC, TA, 10HP, 230/460V 3PH(GH-1640ZX)

For shops that measure success in uptime, the JET GH-1640ZX 16x40 Large Spindle Bore ZX Gear Head Lathe delivers a 16" swing and a drivetrain built to run shift after shift without losing accuracy.

Capacity is where the GH-1640ZX stands out, with a 3-1/8" spindle bore for larger stock and 40" between centers for long shafts, rollers, and cylindrical parts.

A 10 HP Three-Phase motor and 12-speed gear head combine to cover a 26-1500 RPM speed range, from heavy roughing to fine finish passes.

This particular GH-1640ZX package is equipped with a Newall NMS800 digital readout, giving the operator real-time positional feedback to cut setup time and reduce scrap, a collet closer, which speeds up workholding changeovers and improves repeatability on small-diameter or bar-fed parts, and a taper attachment kit, giving operators precise control over taper angles without disturbing the compound rest setting.

Standard industrial safety features include:

• Lead screw cover to keep debris out of the drive mechanism
• Integrated coolant system
• UL 987 certified electrical system
• Electronic chuck key holder to reduce the risk of a key left in the chuck
• Foot brake for rapid spindle stopping
• Chuck guard at the point of operation

Ownership costs stay predictable thanks to JET's 2-year parts and labor warranty on the GH-1640ZX, plus a pre-shipment inspection on every unit.

large-scale repair facilities, heavy fabrication shops, and energy and oilfield equipment suppliers all turn to the GH-1640ZX when precision and durability are non-negotiable.
