It is designed for precision turning, facing, threading, and taper work in professional machine shop environments. The integrated ACU-RITE 200S DRO provides real-time axis position feedback, reducing setup time and improving repeatability on close-tolerance work. At 6000 pounds, this is a heavy-duty floor machine built for production and toolroom applications where rigidity and long-term accuracy are required. Installation and commissioning are typically handled by millwrights or experienced machine tool technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe JET 321508 GH-1640ZX lathe is suited to industrial and professional toolroom use. The taper attachment expands the machine's capability beyond straight turning, allowing controlled taper cuts without offsetting the tailstock. The ACU-RITE 200S DRO is factory-installed, so the unit arrives ready for immediate use without requiring the operator to source or mount a separate readout system. This configuration is common in job shops, maintenance departments, and vocational training facilities that require a versatile, full-featured manual lathe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFactory-installed ACU-RITE 200S digital readout for real-time axis position display\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaper attachment included and installed, enabling taper turning without tailstock offset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeared head drive system for broad spindle speed range and high torque at low speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy cast iron construction at 6000 pounds supports rigid, vibration-resistant cuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGH-1640ZX platform sized for 16-inch swing over bed and 40-inch between centers based on model designation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a factory-configured variant of the JET GH-1640ZX lathe platform with the ACU-RITE 200S DRO and taper attachment installed as an integrated package.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRigging and placement of this machine should be performed by qualified millwrights using appropriate lifting equipment rated for the 6000-pound load. The machine must be leveled on a suitable concrete floor or reinforced foundation before operation. Electrical connection should be made by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for the machine's voltage and phase rating. Verify all factory-installed components, including DRO wiring and taper attachment hardware, are secure and undamaged after transport before initial startup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6000 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDRO\u003c\/strong\u003e: ACU-RITE 200S (factory installed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper Attachment\u003c\/strong\u003e: Installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: JET\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 321508\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"JET","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344772301106,"sku":"321508","price":59228.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310500328.jpg?v=1782043156","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/jet-321508-geared-head-lathe-acu-rite-200s-dro-taper-attachment","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
