About this machine
This Craven is a heavy-duty lathe — sometimes referred to as a centre lathe or engine lathe — a machine tool designed to rotate large workpieces against a cutting tool to perform turning, facing, boring, and other precision machining operations. Craven is a well-established British manufacturer with a long history of producing large, heavy-duty machine tools, particularly lathes and boring machines, for demanding industrial applications including power generation, shipbuilding, mining, and heavy engineering.
This particular machine is offered in used condition from a seller in the United Kingdom and is built around a substantial 2,000 mm swing over the bed and a 1,500 mm swing over the saddle, giving a clear indication of the maximum workpiece diameter it can accommodate at each reference point. The distance between centres measures 8,000 mm, making this a genuinely long-bed machine well suited to the machining of shafts, rolls, spindles, and other elongated components. A 2,000 mm bed extension is included, further increasing the usable working length when required.
The main drive motor is rated at 60 kW, providing the sustained power necessary for heavy material removal on large-diameter stock. The spindle speed range runs from 2 to 152 rpm, a wide and appropriately low-end-biased range that reflects the machine's purpose: cutting large-diameter components at controlled surface speeds. The machine is rated to handle a load capacity of 40 tonnes, underscoring its suitability for very heavy workpieces.
Steadies are included with the machine, providing essential support for long or flexible workpieces during turning operations and helping to maintain accuracy across the full working length.
