Shun Chuan 18" and 20" geared head lathes
Sunmaster AHL lathe
The electronic variable speed drive on the V versions of this series can be fitted with the Anilam 450-L digital readout which when coupled to the spindle drive gives constant surface speed like on a CNC lathe, and the benefits from it of better surface finish, longer tool life and more efficient cutting times.  The Anilam readout also holds tool offset lengths so cut positioning can be done to drawing dimensions even when tools are changed. AHL models have multi disc forward and reverse clutches and 3"+ Spindle Bores
The AHL series also feature:

- forced lubrication system to the headstock with external oil tank to  provide additional cooling
- Turcite-B slideways on the carriage / bed with auto lube.
- precision ground headstock gears for very low noise level.
- wider than average bed ( 13.58" ) fro greater stability.

  The forced lube system, shown above, with external tank provides additional cooling for the headstock and feedbox, giving cooler running and better thermal stability.
