Product Details

  • Large 2" Spindle Bore: Allows larger stock to pass through the headstock — ideal for gunsmithing and industrial work.
  • Variable Speed Control (40–1800 RPM): Infinitely adjustable speeds via VFD, for smoother finishes and optimal control across different materials.
  • 2-Axis DRO: Digital Readout on cross slide and carriage for accurate, repeatable measurements.
  • Wedge-Type Quick Change Tool Post:
    Premium tool post system with 5 holders for fast, rigid tool changes and better surface finish.
  • Cast Iron Base with Storage Drawers: Heavy-duty frame reduces vibration and increases rigidity, while providing integrated storage.
  • Gunsmith-Friendly Spindle Design: Shorter spindle nose (16-1/2") gives you more control and easier access when working through the headstock.
  • Comes Fully Equipped: Includes 8" 3-jaw and 4-jaw chucks, face plate, steady and follow rests, thread dial, foot brake, splash guard, coolant system, and LED work light — everything you need to get started.
  • Threading Versatility: Supports both inch (4–56 TPI) and metric (0.4–7.0mm pitch) threads.

  • Variable Spindle Speeds with Digital Speed Display: The variable spindle speed control allows for precise speed adjustments, enhancing versatility for different machining tasks. The digital speed display provides clear and accurate readings, ensuring optimal control over the spindle speed for every operation.
  • High Precision 3-Jaw & 4-Jaw Chuck: The 1440GV includes both a 3-jaw and 4-jaw chuck: the 3-jaw chuck for quick, secure gripping of round workpieces, and the 4-jaw chuck for precise clamping of square or irregular parts. Perfect for a variety of machining tasks with a 2" spindle bore for larger stock.
  • 2-Axis Digital Readout for Accurate Machining: The 1440GV comes with a 2-axis DRO, providing real-time position feedback on the X and Z axes for accurate, repeatable measurements, ensuring precise machining every time.
  • Precision Handwheel Control: The 1440GV lathe features high-precision handwheels for smooth and accurate adjustments across all key components. Each handwheel is carefully graduated to ensure fine-tuned control, giving you the confidence to achieve precise machining results every time.
  • Two High-Precision Tool Posts for Every Job: The 1440GV lathe comes with two tool posts: a high-precision square tool post for stable, reliable tool positioning, and a quick change tool post for fast, efficient tool swaps. This dual-tooling setup allows for flexible operations and increased productivity, giving you the best of both worlds — precision and speed for every machining task.
  • Quick and Safe Stop with Foot Brake: The 1440GV lathe features a foot brake, enabling operators to quickly halt the machine in emergency situations, ensuring immediate safety during operation. This hands-free control boosts safety and convenience, especially during high-speed or heavy-duty tasks.
  • Automatic Longitudinal and Cross Feed: The 1440GV features automatic longitudinal (X-axis) and cross feed (Z-axis), allowing precise control over both axes without manual input. The longitudinal feed automatically moves the carriage along the bed, ideal for turning, threading, and drilling, while the cross feed moves the tool post across the workpiece for milling, facing, and ensuring consistent cut depth.
  • 3HP Copper Core AC VFD Motor: The 3HP copper core AC motor with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) delivers powerful performance, high efficiency, and long-lasting durability. Operating at 220V single-phase, this motor ensures reliable power for heavy-duty machining, providing consistent results and extended machine life.
  • Precision Tailstock with Quick Locking for Easy Adjustments: The 1440GV lathe features a MT4 tailstock taper, 4" quill travel, and 1.26" quill diameter, enhanced with a quick-locking mechanism for fast, secure adjustments. This allows for rapid repositioning and stable support during drilling and centering operations, improving efficiency and precision in every task.
