Boxford TS10.20 Screwcutting Centre Metal Lathe 3 Phase

Description

Ostia Tools offer for sale this Boxford TS10.20 Lathe 

3 Phase

Metric graduations. 

Metric and imperial screwcutting. This machine is supplied with a set of change gears which will do all the threads shown in bold on the screw cutting chart. This covers all the most commonly used threads. Can’t do 0.9, 1.3 metric threads and 11.5 & 19 TPI threads but no one ever cuts these threads. 

6 spindle speeds. 

This model does not have the full gearbox so changing the screwcutting pitch is done via the change gears (similar to the older Boxford BUD/CUD)

Full working order

Has been fitted with new set of bed wipers, new headstock mat, new chuck guard perspex, new coolant pipework and new telescopic lead screw guards. 

Fitted with coolant pump, power feeds on both axis, thread dial indicator

The drip tray has been repainted in black. The paintwork on these Boxfords is notoriously bad so can only assume there was heavy paint loss underneath but the remaining green is all original and in considerably good condition. 

Supplied with:

3 jaw chuck with both internal and external jaws

Set of change gears

Quick change tool post with 4 tool holders, 3 standard and 1 parting tool holder. Additional tool holders are available. 

Selection of cutting tools

New headstock spindle reducing bush

Pair of new dead centres

New revolving centre

New 4 Jaw independent chuck (not original Pratt Burnerd chuck but a modern Chinese replacement)
