Specifications


Automatic description (AI-Generated)

This listing is for a Cholet 550 EP heavy-duty lathe, manufactured by Ernault-Somua. It features a turning length of 3000 mm and a maximum turning diameter above the bed of 545 mm, suitable for machining large workpieces. The spindle bore measures 52 mm, allowing for substantial spindle capacity. The lathe is equipped with a variable speed drive, providing flexibility in machining operations.

The machine includes a headstock clearly labeled with "H. Erneult Somua" and "Cholet 550," a carriage fitted with control handles and a tool post, and a tailstock with a handwheel for precise support of workpieces. A digital readout and control panel is mounted on the carriage, enhancing operational control and accuracy during machining.

The lathe bed is robust, featuring guideways and a lead screw that appear well-maintained and polished, indicating proper care. There is also a steady rest attached to the bed, which can be useful for supporting long or slender workpieces during turning.

The machine shows minor surface wear consistent with normal use but no visible damage. Protective covers and the electrical cabinet are intact and clean, with multiple access panels for maintenance purposes. Overall, the lathe appears clean and well-maintained, making it suitable for heavy-duty turning tasks requiring precision and reliability.
