This Potisje PA65DC is a used lathe — sometimes referred to as a centre lathe or engine lathe — a machine tool used for rotating a workpiece against a cutting tool to perform turning, facing, boring, threading, and related metal-cutting operations. Potisje is a Serbian manufacturer with a long-established history of producing heavy-duty lathes for industrial and workshop applications across the metalworking and engineering sectors.
This is a large-capacity machine, as its principal dimensions make clear. The distance between centres is 4,000 mm, making it well suited to turning long shafts and other extended workpieces. The centre height over the bed is 650 mm, rising to 800 mm in the bridge area, and the swing diameter — the maximum diameter that can be rotated — is 1,200 mm over the bed, 1,000 mm over the cross slide, and 1,600 mm in the bridge area. The bridge platform itself measures 1,200 mm, further extending the machine's capacity for large-diameter components.
The spindle bore diameter is 140 mm, allowing bar stock of that diameter to pass through the headstock. Spindle speed is variable across a range of 2 to 800 rpm, giving the operator flexibility for both heavy roughing cuts at low speed and finer finishing operations at higher speeds. The main electric motor is rated at 28.5 kW.
The bed is 650 mm wide, with a longitudinal slide travel of 820 mm. Total cross slide travel is 600 mm, and the upper slide travel is 300 mm. The machine is fitted with a GIVI three-axis digital readout, which displays positional data on all three axes and assists the operator in achieving accurate dimensions without repeated manual measurement. The overall footprint of the machine is 6,325 × 1,400 mm. The lathe is offered in used condition and is located in Italy.
