It features a heavy cast iron structure and a high-power motor. The distance between centers is 620 mm (extendable up to 1200 mm with an optional extension), with a turning diameter over the bed of Ø 400 mm, and over the tool rest of Ø 310 mm. Spindle speed is 0-3,000 rpm (continuous, 2 ranges with Delta inverter). Spindle thread is M33 × 3.5 mm, tailstock taper is MK 2, and tailstock quill travel is 105 mm. The motor is 1.1 kW (S1) - 1.5 kW (S6) at 230V single-phase, weighing 150 kg, with machine dimensions of 1,480 × 520 × 1,200 mm. An integrated Delta frequency inverter ensures maximum torque at low speeds. A LED display provides digital speed visualization.

The HCL 620: weighs 150 kg, has a distance between centers of 620 mm (extendable up to 1,200 mm), a turning diameter of Ø 400 mm over the bed and Ø 310 mm over the tool rest. A distinctive feature is the integrated Delta frequency inverter for continuous electronic speed adjustment across 2 ranges (0-1,350 \/ 0-3,000 rpm) with maximum torque at low speeds (a crucial feature for turning large pieces and hard woods). Forward and reverse turning is included. Suitable for professional craftsmen with intensive daily use and the production of medium to large pieces. Spindle thread M33 × 3.5 mm, standard MK 2 tailstock taper. Through-hole in the tailstock for long pieces, quick-locking lever. In Krollit customers' workshops, the HCL compact range is chosen by professional craftsmen with regular production, vocational technical schools with dedicated turning workshops, and semi-professionals producing high-quality decorative items.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIts place in the Bernardo range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bernardo wood lathe range is organized into 4 progressive categories by weight and features: DM (Drechselbank Mini, 20-38 kg) entry-level for hobbyists; DB (semi-pro 36 kg) compact with standard professional accessories; VDM (semi-pro 50 kg) intermediate with 3 speed ranges; HCL (High Cast iron Lathe, 125-212 kg) heavy-duty professional with cast iron structure and integrated Delta frequency inverter. \n\nThe HCL 620 is the compact model with Delta inverter: 150 kg with continuous electronic control and higher torque at low speeds. Difference with HCL 600 P: the 600 P has a DC motor, the 620 has an integrated Delta frequency inverter.

24 indexing positions), VDM (intermediate 50 kg, 3 speed ranges), HCL (professional 125-212 kg with inverter or DC motor and heavy cast iron structure). The HCL 620 is positioned in the HCL COMPACT category: a professional compact model in the HCL range with a Delta inverter and forward\/reverse turning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistinctive features of the HCL 620: Integrated Delta frequency inverter for maximum torque at low speeds. Forward and reverse turning included. To choose the right model, consider: weight of the workpiece, frequency of use, precision requirements, availability of dedicated accessories (light, indexing positions). For most artisan workshops, a mid-range model (VDM 500 or HCL 600 P) balances capacity and price.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhich spindle speed should be chosen for each type of wood?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeneral guidelines for spindle speed based on wood type and workpiece diameter: softwoods (pine, spruce) and small pieces require high speeds (1,500-3,000 rpm), hardwoods (beech, oak, cherry) and medium pieces require medium speeds (700-1,500 rpm), very large pieces (Ø over 200 mm) or exotic woods require low speeds (300-700 rpm) for rotational control. The HCL 620 covers a range of 0-3,000 rpm (continuous, 2 ranges with Delta inverter).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImportant: safety in using a wood lathe requires lower speeds for large or unbalanced pieces. An unbalanced rough piece at high speed causes vibrations and the risk of the piece being ejected. Standard procedure: start at low speed to bring the piece into balance (roughing), then gradually increase speed as the piece becomes more cylindrical. For exotic woods or pieces of uncertain origin (branches, stumps), always start at minimum speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs the machine already complete, or are additional accessories needed?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard equipment includes: complete machine, tool rest (one or more standard sizes), faceplate, drive center, live center, integrated Delta inverter, LED display, turning tool set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOptional accessories typically purchased separately: bed extensions for longer pieces (compatible with models that allow it), tool rests of different lengths, faceplates of larger diameters, self-centering chucks for wood (compatible with M33 thread), additional turning tool sets (roughing, finishing, gouges, specific profiles), external turning accessories (for pieces that do not pass through the centers). For most standard work, the basic equipment is sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat does M33 × 3.5 mm spindle thread mean, and why is it important?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM33 × 3.5 mm is the standard spindle thread for the Bernardo wood lathe range. Dimensions: 33 mm diameter with a 3.5 mm pitch. It is the European market standard for hobby and semi-professional lathes, compatible with most woodturning accessories available on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePractical advantage: M33 thread allows you to purchase self-centering chucks, faceplates, external turning accessories, and other accessories from various suppliers (Bernardo, Holzmann, Record Power, Axminster) without compatibility issues. For lathes from other brands with non-standard threads (e.g., 1\"×8 TPI American, M30×3.5 of some industrial lathes), accessories are limited to those from the original manufacturer. All Bernardo wood lathes in the DM\/DB\/VDM\/HCL range have the same M33 × 3.5 mm thread: accessories are interchangeable between different models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs a dedicated dust extraction system needed for the lathe?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecommended, especially for continuous use. Woodturning produces chips and dust of varying diameters (from large chips to fine wood dust). Large chips fall into the area under the machine, while fine dust disperses into the workshop air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor occasional use (a few hours a week), manual cleaning may suffice. For continuous use, a bag filter dust extractor (e.g., Bernardo DC range) connected to the integrated extraction port on many lathes (or positioned near the turning area for ambient capture) is correctly sized. Important: fine dust from hardwoods (beech, oak, mahogany) is carcinogenic with prolonged inhalation; effective extraction is recommended for operator health. For exotic woods (rosewood, ebony), even greater care is needed: also use FFP3 masks in addition to extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"Bernardo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50696508703048,"sku":"10-1183","price":2034.07,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0891\/2139\/0920\/files\/Tornio_per_legno_compatto_HCL_620_con_inverter.jpg?v=1753196281","url":"https:\/\/www.krollit.com\/products\/lathe-for-wood-hcl-620-230v","provider":"Krollit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
