Bernardo Standard 150 Plus Lathe
The Bernardo Standard 150 Plus is a compact and robust professional lathe, suitable for workshops, schools, and maintenance departments. With a distance between centers of 1000 mm and a swing over bed of 330 mm, it allows precise machining of medium-sized workpieces. The mechanical 9-speed transmission (75–1400 rpm) ensures quick and repeatable settings; the D1-4 spindle nose with a Ø 38 mm bore guarantees compatibility with standard equipment. The removable gap bed 220 mm allows turning in the gap up to Ø 430 mm. Standard features include: self-centering and independent chucks, steady and follow rests, faceplate, 4-way tool post, coolant system, magnetic motor brake and CE foot brake. Solid construction (bed width 180 mm, 470 kg) and a 1.5 kW (S1) / 2.2 kW (S6) – 400 V motor for stability, safety, and continuous operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Standard series and the Profi series in Bernardo lathes?
The Standard series (like the Standard 150) has a monobloc structure with a prismatic bed: more rigid and quieter for continuous precision machining, with an international standard D1-4 or D1-6 spindle nose. The Profi series has a gap bed that facilitates access to the cutting area and lower weight — suitable for workshops with limited space. Standard 150: Ø bed 330 mm, distance between centers 1000 mm — intermediate dimensions between hobbyist and industrial light.
Does the 9-speed gearbox cover all typical machining operations?
The 9-speed gearbox covers the main needs: low speeds for hard steel and large sections (50–100 rpm), medium speeds for standard steel (200–600 rpm), high speeds for aluminum and finishing (800–2000 rpm). Selection requires stopping the machine and operating the lever.
Spare parts and accessories available?
Standard accessories available: 4-jaw chuck, steady and follow rest, clamping plate, collet chuck. Original spare parts available with 3–5 business day shipping. Customer support available in Italian.
How much space does the Standard 150 require in the workshop?
Consider at least the distance between centers (1000 mm) clear in front of and behind the machine for workpiece handling, plus 80 cm on each side for safe working. For machines over 300 kg, coordinate with Krollit for unloading equipment.
