JET EVS-1440 Electronic Variable Speed Lathe with Collet Closer, 3HP by JET is a precision-engineered metalworking lathe built for demanding shop environments where accuracy, versatility, and long-term rigidity are essential. Powered by a 3 HP, 230V, 3-Phase motor and equipped with electronic variable speed control, this lathe delivers consistent, reliable performance across a wide range of turning operations. Its V-Way bed design - induction hardened and ground - combined with Meehanite castings that retain their tolerance and remain rigid over many years of machining, ensures this machine is built to perform shift after shift. Key Features V-Way bed design is induction hardened and ground for lasting precision and rigidity Compound and cross slide have backlash elimination for accurate, repeatable cuts LED RPM readout allows for precise turning speeds at a glance Electronic Chuck Key Docking Station keeps the chuck key safely secured when not in use Independent lead screw and feed rod for versatile threading and feeding operations Threading Dial Indicator for accurate thread pickup and engagement Full Length Splash Guard helps contain coolant and chips during operation Front Removable Chip Tray simplifies cleanup and keeps the work area clear Safety on/off switch for operator protection Integrated locking tool storage cabinet in the stand keeps tooling organized and secure D1-4 spindle precision ground for accuracy, supported by class 7 tapered roller bearings with a maximum runout of .0004" Apron-mounted actuation control and jog button for easy gear engagement and spindle inching Two-speed gearbox: low speed range 40-365 RPM and high speed range 220-2,000 RPM 34 inch thread pitches and 34 metric thread pitches available 25 longitudinal and cross feed rates for versatile material removal Tailstock may be offset for turning taper Meehanite castings retain their tolerance and remain rigid over many years of machining Specifications MPN: JT9-311442 Model Number: EVS-1440B Motor: 3 HP, 230V, 3-Phase Low Speed Range (RPM): 40-365 High Speed Range (RPM): 220-2,000 Compound Slide Travel (In.): 3-1/2 Cross Slide Travel (In.): 7 Length of Gap (In.): 9-1/2 Max Tool Size (In.): 3/4 x 3/4 Number of Inch Threads: 34 Range of Inch Threads (TPI): 2-56 Number of Metric Threads: 34 Number of Longitudinal and Cross Feed Rates: 25 Range of Longitudinal Feeds (IPR): 0.0016-0.0460 Range of Cross Feeds (IPR): 25 Overall Dimensions (L x W x H) (In.): 68.5 x 28.3 x 50 Net Weight (Lbs.): 1,320 Gross Weight (Lbs.): 1,584 Country of Origin: Taiwan Prop 65: Cancer and Reproductive Harm
