Jet 321568 Engine Lathe Acu-rite 200S Dro Collet Closer

Product Description

The JET 321568 is a heavy-duty engine lathe configured with a 2-axis ACU-RITE 200S digital readout (DRO), a collet closer, and a taper attachment. The ACU-RITE 200S DRO provides real-time axis position display, reducing manual calculation and improving repeatability on precision turning operations. The integrated taper attachment enables accurate taper turning without repositioning the tailstock. At 7,425 pounds, this is a full-size industrial machine suited for production and toolroom environments. Licensed machinists and journeyman-level lathe operators are the primary installers and commissioning technicians for this class of equipment.

The JET 321568 GH-2280ZX is designed for demanding metal-turning applications in industrial shops, toolrooms, and maintenance facilities. The combination of DRO, collet closer, and taper attachment makes it well suited for high-mix, precision-part production where fast setup and consistent repeatability are required. This configuration targets professional machinists running ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces at production volumes.

Key Features

• 2-axis ACU-RITE 200S DRO for real-time position readout on both axes
• Collet closer included for fast, repeatable workholding without a chuck change
• Taper attachment for precise taper turning independent of tailstock offset
• Full-size industrial engine lathe platform at 7,425 pounds
• Single-unit (each) configuration — machine ships as one complete assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-configured replacement or new-installation engine lathe for industrial and toolroom settings requiring integrated DRO and taper-turning capability.

Installation Notes

Installation of a machine in this weight class requires appropriately rated rigging equipment and a level, reinforced concrete floor capable of supporting the static and dynamic load. Electrical connection must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC requirements for the supply voltage and amperage of the specific machine configuration. Commission the DRO per the ACU-RITE 200S installation guide before operating under load. Do not attempt to move or reposition the machine without proper lifting points and rigging.
