Brake Skimming Lathe Machine – Combination Disc / Drum – RL 8500 – Ranger / USA for Car & Trucks

RL-8500

Combination Disc/Drum Brake Lathe with Bench & Standard Tooling / The revolutionary RL-8500 combination brake lathe uses independent DC servo motors to control the cross-feed and spindle feed drives, eliminating the need for complex mechanical gear boxes and transmissions typically found on mechanically-driven brake lathes.

Features

• Precision electric DC servo motors designed to meet the demanding requirements of industrial motion control
• Quick-Change Adapter-Plus system with built-in springs eliminates the need for conventional bell clamps and cones
• Works with hubless drums, rotors (center hole sized 2-5/32" – 4") and composite rotors (center hole sized 4" – 6.25")
• The RL-8500 is equipped with features that help increase your service capability, like precision twin cutter tools and a quick drum-to-rotor changeover
• Infinitely variable spindle and cross feed speed settings allow for quick rough and precision finish cuts
• Massive tapered spindle bearings offer superior weight support during rotation
• A variety of adapters let you machine all standard and composite rotors for foreign and domestic cars and light trucks
• A 450-lb. cast iron body and a solid work bench reduce transient vibrations, ensuring a smooth uninterrupted surface finish with each pass
• Positive rake cutter tip angle provides a one-pass finish virtually every time, allowing you to complete your work faster than inferior multi-pass lathes
