adjustable centre point for taper turning MK2+MK3

Intended use

The adjustable fixed centre point is suitable for turning tapered and conical workpieces on lathes. By laterally adjusting the centre point, the workpiece can be precisely offset from the axis of rotation without time-consuming tailstock adjustment. This enables controlled machining of conical workpieces, cones, sleeves, adapters and conical fits.

Adjustable fixed centre point for taper and cone turning

Lateral adjustment of the workpiece support without the traditional retraction of the tailstock

For lathes with a suitable MK2 or MK3 mount

60° centre point angle for workpiece support

Lateral adjustment range of +/- 7 mm

Description of the

This adjustable fixed centre point is an accessory for lathes and is used for taper turning and cone turning. It enables lateral adjustment of the workpiece support without moving the lathe’s tailstock using the traditional method. This allows conical workpieces to be machined in a controlled manner with reduced setup effort. The centre point is fixed and does not rotate with the workpiece. It is used to support the workpiece between centres and is particularly suitable for applications where robust and simple support is required when turning conical shapes. The centre angle is 60°, making it suitable for typical centring tasks in turning operations. The centre point can be moved laterally by up to +/- 7 mm using the adjustment mechanism. This allows the desired taper or cone to be precisely set. The scale aids controlled adjustment and facilitates repeatable setting for suitable applications. With an overall length of 153 mm and a tip diameter of 24 mm, the centre point is designed for use on compatible lathes. The MK2 + MK3 version enables attachment to machines with a matching Morse taper mount. The adjustable fixed centre point is suitable for machining cones, tapered fits, adaptors, sleeves and similar workpiece shapes. It is a practical solution for users who wish to produce tapered workpieces on a lathe without having to reposition the tailstock themselves.

The centre point has double bearings and therefore achieves a high concentricity of max. 0.007 mm. It can be used up to a speed of 1,500 rpm. The steel tip is hardened and ground, which increases the load capacity and service life of this item. The point angle of this centre point is 60°, as is usual for centre points.

In contrast to fixed centre points, the tip of live centre points rotates with the workpiece, which prevents friction and enables higher speeds.

Review with rating of 5 out of 5 stars

zum Kegeldrehen auf der Drehselbank bräuchte, ...

Die verstellbare Körnerspitze zum Kegeldrehen ist eine TOP-Idee für die Drehbank. Wer daneben noch eine Drechselbank sein eigen nennt, der wünscht sich ein Kugellager in die Kontaktspitze. Das Gerät hat ein gutes Handling, genaue Einstellungen sind schnell umgesetzt, das Gerät ist belastbar und gut für den Alltag konzipiert. Das Gerät bringt TOP-Ergebnisse und ich empfehle es unbeschränkt weiter. Dieses Gerät würde ich wieder kaufen, deswegen die Empfehlung, das Gerät ist eine sehr gute Anschaffung für die Drehbank. Alles Gute und viel Erfolg, wünscht aus dem Saarland, mit freundlichen Grüßen Hansfranz
