Bernardo Standard 165 Plus Lathe – 8 speeds, D1-4 mount

Bernardo Standard 165 Plus Lathe

The Bernardo Standard 165 Plus is a reliable professional lathe for workshops, schools, and maintenance departments. With a 1000 mm distance between centers and a 350 mm swing over bed, it allows for precise machining of medium-sized workpieces. The 8-speed transmission (70–2000 rpm) ensures quick and repeatable settings, while the Ø 40 mm spindle bore with D1-4 taper guarantees compatibility with standard equipment. The 220 mm removable gap bed allows for machining in the gap up to Ø 450 mm. Standard equipment includes a self-centering and independent chuck, steady and follow rests, faceplate, 4-way tool post, coolant system, magnetic motor brake, and CE foot brake. Solid construction (180 mm bed width, 495 kg) and a 1.5 kW (S1) / 2.2 kW (S6) – 400 V motor for stability and safety in continuous production.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Standard series and the Profi series in Bernardo lathes?

The Standard series (like the Standard 165) 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 taper. The Profi series has a gap bed that facilitates access to the cutting area and lower weights — suitable for workshops with limited space. Standard 150: Ø bed 350 mm, distance between centers 1000 mm — intermediate dimensions between hobbyist and industrial light.

Does the 8-speed gearbox cover all typical machining operations?

The 8-speed gearbox covers the main needs: low speeds for hard steel and large sections (50–100 rpm), medium for standard steel (200–600 rpm), high for aluminum and finishing (800–2000 rpm). Selection requires stopping the machine and switching the lever.

Are 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 working days shipping. Customer support available in Italian.

How much space does the Standard 165 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.
