Frequently Asked Questions
What size workpiece can the DB 450 230V Wood Lathe + M33 Self-Centering Chucks turn?
See "Distance between centers" and "Max. swing over bed" in the technical table.
Bench lathes handle workpieces up to 700-1,000 mm between centers; professional models reach 1,500 mm and beyond. For large diameter bowls, check the free overhang.
Is the spindle speed adjustable?
Yes, adjustment via belt change (stepped) or electronic variator (Vario) depending on the model.
Low speeds (200-500 rpm) for large diameter workpieces or roughing, high speeds (1,500-3,000 rpm) for finishing small workpieces.
What spindle connection does it have?
Typically M33x3.5 thread or MK 2 on the spindle. Check the technical table.
Standard connections allow the use of interchangeable accessories (self-centering chucks for bowls, live centers, etc.) available on the market.
What motor power does it have?
See "Motor power" in the technical table: typically 0.5-2 kW.
For intensive turning of large workpieces, at least 1.5 kW is needed. Hobby bench models range from 0.3 to 0.75 kW for occasional use.
How much does the machine weigh?
From approximately 30 kg (mini-lathes) to over 200 kg (professional with base).
For intensive use, a lathe weighing over 80 kg is recommended to dampen vibrations and ensure machining precision.
