Capabilities

The WMW DLZ 450x1600 is a versatile center lathe designed for precision metalworking. It handles turning diameters up to 450mm over the bed and 250mm over the cross-slide, with a generous 1600mm turning length. Key capabilities include a 2240rpm spindle speed, 45mm spindle bore, and integrated taper turning and coolant devices. The machine accommodates workpieces up to 800-1250kg, making it suitable for medium to large components.

Industries & Uses

This lathe serves manufacturing businesses in automotive, aerospace, mechanical engineering, and general job shops. It's ideal for producing shafts, bushings, housings, and custom turned parts where precision and repeatability matter. Small manufacturers and contract shops often rely on machines like this to handle diverse production runs without the expense of newer CNC equipment.

What to Check When Buying

Before purchasing, prioritize checking the spindle—listen for noise and verify runout accuracy. Inspect the lead screw and feed mechanisms for wear or backlash, as these determine surface finish quality. Request complete maintenance records since the 1993 overhaul; verify that bearings, belts, and hydraulic systems (if equipped) have been serviced. Check the bed for cracks or warping by running a straightedge along it. Test all handwheels and clutches for smooth operation. Given its 1965 manufacture, confirm electrical safety compliance with local standards.
