The Twister speed lathes- models LT-1BR and LT-2AR- are replacing the company’s previous models LT-1B and LT-2A.
The upgraded models feature a ½-hp motor instead of the former 1/3-hp motor. In addition, the spindle rpm has been expanded, now ranging from 0 to 2,600 rpm instead of 100 to 2,500 rpm.
According to the company, other noteworthy features include “no hesitation” forward/reverse switching; regenerative speed control; quick speed and direction changes; and low voltage switching that is designed for reliability.
