About this machine
This Heyligenstaedt 400 EA 4000 is a centre lathe — sometimes called an engine lathe — a machine tool used for turning, facing, threading, and boring cylindrical workpieces by rotating the workpiece against a cutting tool. Heyligenstaedt was a well-established German machine tool manufacturer with a long history of producing heavy-duty lathes and other precision turning machines for metalworking and industrial manufacturing.
Dating from 1957 and located in Germany, this is a substantial machine built for large-diameter, long-workpiece turning. It offers a turning diameter over the bed of 800 mm and a turning diameter over the slide rest of 540 mm, with a centre height of 400 mm. The centre distance and turning length are both 4,000 mm, making it well suited to long shafts and other extended components. The machine is fitted with a gap bed with removable insert, which allows even larger-diameter workpieces to be swung in the gap when required. Total machine weight is approximately 8.0 tonnes, reflecting the rigidity and mass of construction typical of a lathe built for heavy work.
The spindle speed range runs from 9 to 1,140 rpm, covering a wide spread that accommodates both slow, large-diameter turning and faster finishing work on smaller diameters.
The machine comes with a well-equipped set of accessories. Workholding includes a Forkardt 3-jaw chuck of 400 mm diameter, a 4-jaw independent chuck of 500 mm diameter, and a faceplate of 800 mm diameter, providing flexibility across a range of workpiece sizes and configurations. A Multifix quick-change toolpost head with various inserts is fitted, which speeds up tool changes and maintains repeatability. Positional feedback is provided by an Acu-Rite digital readout system on both the X and Z axes. Steady rest equipment comprises two fixed steadies and one travelling steady, supporting long or heavy workpieces during turning. Additional equipment includes a running centre and a coolant system.
