What This Machine Does
The C0636N is a bench metal lathe for machining and repair shops working on shafts, spindles, sleeves and small to medium disc parts. It swings 360mm over the bed, 223mm over the support and 502mm over the gap, with a 179mm centre height and 1000mm between centres on a bed 187mm wide and 290mm high. The feature that sets it apart in this size class is the 52mm through-hole spindle bore, which lets larger bar stock pass through the headstock instead of being held out in front of the chuck. The spindle uses a D1-5 cam lock system and an MT No.6 taper and runs from 70 to 2000 r.p.m., driven by a 1.5kw motor wired for 220V or 380V. Cross slide travel is 160mm, compound slide travel 95mm, the lead screw is 22mm and the feed rod 19mm, with a tool post for 16mm by 16mm tooling. It cuts imperial, diametric and module threads, and the compact construction keeps it quiet and easy to service.
Why Buyers Choose This Machine
- 52mm through-hole spindle bore takes larger bar than most bench machines of this swing
- 502mm gap swing lets discs and flanges be faced without moving the job to a bigger lathe
- D1-5 cam lock spindle nose makes chuck changes fast and repeatable
- 70-2000 r.p.m. from a 1.5kw motor covers roughing at full swing and finishing at small diameters
- Imperial diametric and module threading covers repair work beyond plain metric pitches
- Supplied for 220V or 380V so the same machine suits single and three phase shops
- Compact construction with low noise and straightforward access for repair
Where C0636N Bench Metal Lathe Machine Earns Its Place
Problems It Solves
- Small spindle bores force long bar to project dangerously from the chuck
- Disc and flange work larger than the bed swing has to be subcontracted without a gap
- Module and diametric threads normally require special change gear sets
- Shops with only single phase supply cannot run a 380V-only machine
- Threaded spindle noses waste time on every chuck change
- Noisy loose bench lathes lose accuracy and are unpleasant to work beside all day
Who It Is For
- Machining and tool room shops handling mixed shaft and disc work
- Repair workshops needing a bench lathe with a large through bore
- Small production shops running short bar-fed batches
- Training workshops teaching turning and multi-system threading
- Distributors supplying light and medium engineering shops
Application Scenarios
- Bar work up to 52mm fed through the spindle for repeat turned parts
- Turning shafts and spindles up to 1000mm between centres
- Facing and boring discs and flanges up to 502mm in the gap
- Cutting imperial diametric and module threads for gear and repair work
- Sleeve and bush machining in a tool room or repair shop
- Middle and small disc work where a floor lathe would be oversized

How It Compares With the Alternatives
| Bench lathes with a small spindle bore | The 52mm through hole takes bar that smaller-bore machines of the same swing cannot pass through the headstock |
|---|---|
| Horizontal Bench Type Lathe Machine C0632A | The C0632A is the smaller frame; the C0636N gives 360mm swing 502mm in the gap and a 52mm bore on a 187mm bed |
| Floor-standing engine lathe of similar swing | The C0636N keeps compact construction and bench mounting, which matters when floor area rather than capacity is the limit |
| Turning discs on a vertical or manual fixture | The gap and the 179mm centre height let a 502mm disc be turned and bored in one concentric setup |
Running the Machine
Step 1
Mount the lathe on a rigid bench and level it before the first cut
Step 2
Check that bar passed through the 52mm bore is supported and guarded behind the headstock
Step 3
Fit the chuck on the D1-5 cam lock nose and lock every cam to its mark
Step 4
Set the spindle speed within 70-2000 r.p.m. for the diameter and material
Step 5
Select the thread system and pitch from the chart before engaging the lead screw
Step 6
Remove the gap piece only for large diameter work and refit it for shaft turning
Step 7
Clean and lubricate the ways lead screw and feed rod at the end of each shift
