Bernardo Profi 650 G / 230 V Lathe
The Bernardo Profi 650 G / 230 V lathe is designed for advanced hobbyists, schools, and small workshops seeking precision in a compact space. With a distance between centers of 650 mm and a swing over bed of 280 mm, it allows for accurate machining of small to medium-sized workpieces. The 12-speed gearbox (70–2000 rpm) offers quick and repeatable settings, while the 0.75 kW (S1) – 1.0 kW (S6) single-phase motor ensures continuous cutting. The 160 mm bed, Ø 26 mm spindle bore (MT4 taper), and MT3 tailstock with 105 mm travel ensure rigidity and stability. The equipment includes a Ø 125 mm self-centering chuck, a 4-way tool post, change gears, LED lighting, and CE guards. Compact (202 kg) and affordable, it's a complete solution for quality machining.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the Profi 650 and the Profi 550/700 models in the same series?
The number in the name indicates the distance between centers in mm — the maximum turning length of the workpiece. Profi 550 mm. The 26 mm spindle bore indicates the maximum diameter of the bar that can pass through the spindle bore without turning. The G gear change provides more torque at low speeds compared to belt versions.
How does the G gear change work?
The Profi 650 uses a gear change (G) for speed variation: more torque at low speeds compared to belt variators, suitable for hard steels and large sections. Switching is done from a standstill with the external lever — no belt disassembly required.
230 V power supply: is a transformer needed for the Profi 650?
230 V single-phase — connects directly to the standard Italian industrial socket (Schuko 16A). No transformer or three-phase panel required. Suitable for private workshops, workshops without three-phase power, and vocational schools.
Are spare parts and assistance available?
Original spare parts available with 3–5 working days shipping. Customer support in Italian available.
