Jet 321530 Geared Head Lathe 3-axis Acu-rite 200S Dro

Product Description

The JET 321530 is a geared head engine lathe equipped with a factory-installed 3-axis ACU-RITE 200S digital readout (DRO) system. The GH-1660ZX platform is a heavy-duty metal-turning lathe designed for production and toolroom environments where accuracy and repeatability are essential. The integrated DRO provides real-time axis position feedback, reducing setup time and improving dimensional consistency across runs. At 6,200 pounds, this is a floor-mounted machine intended for permanent installation in a professional machine shop or industrial facility. Installation and commissioning are typically performed by a millwright or qualified machine tool technician.

The GH-1660ZX is suited for commercial and industrial machine shop applications including shaft turning, boring, threading, and facing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The 16-inch swing and 60-inch bed length accommodate a wide range of workpiece sizes. The factory-installed ACU-RITE 200S DRO eliminates the need for post-purchase DRO retrofitting, making the machine ready for precision work immediately after leveling and setup.

Key Features

• Factory-installed 3-axis ACU-RITE 200S digital readout system for real-time position feedback
• Geared head drive provides positive gear engagement across speed ranges without belt slippage
• 16-inch swing over bed suitable for large-diameter workpieces
• 60-inch bed length for extended shaft and workpiece support
• Heavy cast iron construction at 6,200 pounds for vibration damping and rigidity

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-configured machine tool unit. The ACU-RITE 200S DRO is factory-installed on the GH-1660ZX lathe platform as a complete, integrated assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation of a machine tool at this weight class requires a level, reinforced concrete floor and appropriate rigging equipment. A licensed millwright or machine tool technician should perform leveling, alignment, and electrical connection. Electrical supply requirements should be confirmed before delivery and the machine must be properly grounded per NEC guidelines. Do not attempt to move or reposition the unit without proper rigging and lifting equipment rated for the load.
