Jet 321595 Geared Head Lathe Acu-rite 300S Dro

Product Description

The JET 321595 is a geared head engine lathe equipped with an ACU-RITE 300S digital readout system. It is designed for precision metal turning operations in industrial shops, toolrooms, and production environments. The integrated DRO provides real-time axis position feedback, reducing setup time and improving dimensional accuracy across turning, facing, and threading operations. At 6700 pounds, this is a heavy-duty floor machine built for sustained production use. Installation and commissioning are typically handled by millwrights or experienced machinists with appropriate rigging equipment.

This lathe is suited for professional machine shops, maintenance facilities, and vocational training environments that require reliable geared head performance paired with digital position readout. The ACU-RITE 300S DRO is factory-integrated, making this unit ready for immediate production use without the need for aftermarket DRO installation. It serves metalworking professionals who need consistent, repeatable results on long-run or high-precision turning work.
