Summit Lathes are American Designed and European Manufactured to exact ISO Standards and specifications.
Summit lathes feature simplicity and ruggedness not found in other lathes. Features like a single handle "Joy Stick" control with built in rapid traverse. This feature allows for quick and easy feed engagement with feed reversing at the carriage.
A Standard, not optional, Large Spindle Bore gives you the ability to turn cylindrical parts of a relative large diameter. Our 20" and 24" metal lathes have a 4 1/8" hole thru the spindle. This capacity is usually only found on larger thus more expensive lathes. The larger spindle size necessitates a larger diameter bearing giving the machine greater radial and thrust capacities.
Summit Lathes, designed with wide bed way to swing ratios, allow you to produce excellent finishes at maximum material removal rates not always possible with other lathes. Summit has been providing preeminent customer service for almost 50 years.
