Description of the

The PM4000 lathe is supplied with a matching base frame. The metal lathe is driven by a powerful 400 volt three-phase motor with an output power of 1,500 watts. Power is reliably transmitted via a two-stage double pulley, which allows the user to switch between the high and low speed ranges (by changing the drive belts). The working spindle gearbox, which runs in an oil bath, has nine different spindle speeds, which can be selected via two control levers. This means that a total of 18 speeds from 65 to 1,810 rpm can be set. The automatic longitudinal and face feed is carried out via the feed spindle equipped with a slip clutch. During thread cutting, the feed is realised via the lead screw and the lock nut.
Switching on the lead or pull spindle and setting the different feed speeds for turning or the desired pitch for thread cutting is done via four control levers on the separate feed gearbox. The direction of rotation of the lead or pull spindle can be changed independently of the direction of rotation of the lathe chuck by moving a shift lever. This means that this hobby lathe can also be used to produce left-hand threads. The lead screw is completely covered to prevent accidental intervention, and this protection also prevents falling metal chips from sticking. This prevents unnecessary wear and possible damage to the lock nut. The prism bed is induction hardened and ground. The machine bed also has a removable bed bridge.
This enables the machining of turned parts with a diameter of up to approx. 450 mm. The PM4000 is also equipped with a foot brake. This allows the lathe to be stopped with pinpoint accuracy, for example when thread cutting. All guides can be adjusted backlash-free using wedge strips. The main spindle runs in precision tapered roller bearings, which can be readjusted if necessary. The top slide can be rotated and is therefore suitable for taper turning. The tailstock can also be moved transversely for taper turning. A professional control lever is used to switch the lathe on and off (clockwise or anti-clockwise rotation). The torque button, the operating light and the emergency stop button are located on the control panel on the headstock. Other special features include a centre distance of 900 mm and a spindle bore of 38 mm.

The pre-installed 4-axis glass scale measuring system with LCD screen deserves special mention. Some of the functions of the measuring system include

  • Calculator function with memory
  • Switchover mm / inch
  • Inclined contour / surface: Milling of phases or diagonal surfaces
  • Straight line (SHL): For evenly divided bores on a straight line
  • Tool compensation in lathe mode
  • Radii (R): For milling a radius or circular arc
  • Pitch circle (PCD): For evenly divided holes on an arc
  • Taper turning in lathe mode

Despite its compact size, the PM3700 hobby lathe offers a wide range of possible uses. The gear drive running in an oil bath allows twelve different spindle speeds from 45 to 2,000 rpm, which are switched with a lever. The metal lathe has an additional oil bath gearbox for selecting the different feed speeds for turning and the different pitches for thread cutting. This virtually eliminates the need to replace change gears. You simply select the required feed rate or pitch using the two control levers. The direction of rotation of the combined lead/pull spindle can be set independently of the direction of rotation of the main spindle using a further control knob. This allows you to produce left-hand threads, for example. The PM3700 is equipped with an automatic longitudinal and face feed. The professional control lever makes it quick and easy to select the direction of rotation, which makes operating the lathe much more convenient.

mal super, mal weniger

Nachdem ich die PM4000 2019 gekauft und kürzlich verkauft habe, kommt die Reue auf den Fuss. Blöde Idee! Jetzt bin ich drauf und dran, mir die gleiche wieder zu kaufen. Ist also ungefähr so, als wenn man die geschiedene Frau wieder heiratet. Egal! Denke drüber nach und das sagt ja auch einiges über die Qualitäten der Maschine aus! Die festgestellten negativen Erscheinungen zuerst: -Paulimot hat es trotz mehrfacher Hinweise in den Bewertungen nicht zu einem montierten Hauptschalter geschafft -Abstand zwischen Unterseite vom Bett und Spänewanne zu gering; Saubermachen mühselig -mein Vorschlag: wie bei der PM5000 Loch in der Spänewanne mit Schublade -Hinweis auf richtige Einstellung nach Aufstellen ist dürftig (Wasserwaage/ Lotrecht etc.), Entfernung der Bettbrücke -Maschine zu niedrig, wahrscheinlich auf chinesische Standardgröße gesetzt (nein keine Beleidigung liebe Woker), viele werden ein Lattenrost für die Späne vor der Maschine haben: noch mehr bücken ist angesagt weil man höher steht -Auflagefläche des Untergestells hat zu wenig Tiefe, deshalb ist das Ganze wackelig und kippelig, nicht jeder kann oder darf die Maschine am Boden festschrauben (z.B. Fliesen/ Mietwerkstatt oder ähnliches), habe in meinem Fall selbst Höherlegung mit Verbreiterung gemacht, mit Maschinenfüssen fühlt sich das gefährlich an -RAL-Nummer oder kleine Farbtöpfchen zum Ausbessern wären gut im Verkaufssortiment -Hinweis auf Bettbahnölsorte wäre auch gut (Telefonische Anfrage: normales harzfreies Motoröl tut´s) -habe jetzt mehrfach gelesen, das beim Ölwechsel Sand und Gießreste im Getriebegehäuse ausgespült wurde. (habe ich jetzt bei mir nicht gesehen) meine speziellen Probleme: -Ölverlust im oberen Getriebekasten, ganze Maschine und Boden darunter eingesaut, nicht viel, das es kritisch würde, aber stetig, Riemenabdeckung verölt, Motor verölt und der Dinge mehr -Futter läuft nicht immer an (alle Kabelklemmen im E-Kasten nachziehen / Stecker ziehen nicht vergessen) -Stromkasten schief montiert; Abdeckung des Riemenkastens liegt nicht an: Spalt 3mm, Dreck fällt rein -Abdeckung Leitspindel hakt: dadurch fallen Späne rein, weil sich eine Öffnung bildet -Reitstock zu hoch, jeder Bohrer fängt das Eiern an, egal wie dick -beim Abstechen leider etwas Rattern meine positiven Erfahrungen: -prompte Lieferung -laufruhig -Bahnen auch nach 6 Jahren noch top (allerdings relativ wenig im Einsatz) und glänzend -kein Rost -guter Drehergebnisse -viele (18) Geschwindigkeiten an der Spindel -guter Rundlauf -stabiler Oberschlitten mit Multifix A von Paulimot, (beim Abstechen leider etwas Rattern) -guter Service mit kompetenten Fachberatern am Telefon Zum Ende noch Verbesserungsvorschläge, teilweise oben schon genannt: 1.endlich ein Schalter 2.Späneschublade einbauen ab Werk 3.unter den Artikeln Hinweise auf passendes Zubehör, damit man nicht suchen muss, was so alles passen könnte 4. Angebot der Maschinen mit zusätzlichen Teilen als günstigeres Komplettpaket z.B. Multifix, Drehstähle, Kühlung.. 5. Angebot ohne Untergestell (wie man in den Foren liest, bauen viele was stabileres selbst), DRO wird ja auch mit Maschine angeboten 6. vermisse die Zollstöcke bzw. die Tragetaschen in der Bestellung als Bonbon :-(((( 7. vielleicht passende Frequenzumrichter ins Programm mit aufnehmen Ansonsten weiter so, Paulimot-Team. Ihr seid eines der selten gewordenen Teams, denen der Kunde noch was wert ist. Muss und sollte auch mal gesagt werden! LG

Reply from paulimot: Hallo Michael, vielen Dank für das ausführliche Feedback zur PM4000. Der Hauptschalter ist mittlerweile verbaut, die Hinweise auf das passende Zubehör haben wir auch sehr fein umgesetzt im Shop. Die restlichen Punkte werden wir sehr gerne mit dem Hersteller besprechen. Ihr paulimot-Team

Great value for money

Before I bought the lathe, I got quick and qualified answers to my questions. The delivery was quick. This lathe is the real deal! I have had a similar size Vario lathe of another brand that was terrible, this geared lathe is so much better, stronger, heavier, it is great value for money. Is it perfect - no, you don´t get perfect in this price range, with these imported machines you should always expect to put in some hours to get it how you want it, but this lathe is worth it, you will have a great lathe for many years. I was hesitant about buying an imported geared lathe, even that I overall prefer a geared lathe, I have seen some Chinese lathes that made terrible noise from the gears, this lathe have hardened and ground gears, and they run relative quiet. Not as quiet as a really expensive lathe, but this lathe have a very acceptable noise level compared to other Chinese machines I have seen, I am very satisfied. One weird thing, the overhang on the tailstock points the wrong way, it should have overhang towards the chuck and not away from the chuck.

Ein dickes Lob an Paulimot und Spedition.

Ein dickes Lob an Paulimot und Spedition. Maschine wurde sehr schnell geliefert war echt überrascht. Zur Maschine: außer ein paar Lackabplatzungen alles im Tadellosen zustand. das Mit dem Lack will ich nicht Reklamieren da ich vom freundlichen Support Team die Farb Nummern bekommen habe und ich selber ausbessere oder auch Lasse. Wie ich aus anderen Foren gelesen habe und immer wieder das Lapprige Untergestell bemängelt wurde, habe ich mich entschlossen ein Durchdachtes Untergestell aus Stahl das ich selbst geschweißt habe (sogar mit Bremspedal) anzufertigen. Maschine aufgesetzt ausgerichtet und gleich super Dreh Ergebnisse damit erzielt von der Maßhaltigkeit bin ich bis jetzt auch zufrieden. Da die Maschine ganz an der Wand steht, habe ich die Spritzschutzwand abgeändert so das man an die Motorschrauben ran kommt, falls mal der Riemen umgelegt oder gewechselt werden muss das sollte man mal ihm Hersteller zeigen wie man so was macht. Ebenso möchte ich jedem an Herzen legen wo oft dreht, unbedingt Multifix montieren ist eine ware Freude damit zu arbeiten. Die Feststellschraube für den Support habe ich durch selbstgemachter 6 knt. Schraube ersetzt so kommt man jetzt mit Ringschlüssel super ran (könnte man auch im Hersteller zeigen wie es besser geht). Ich Frage mich nur, warum bei der Betriebsanleitung kein Stromlaufplan dabei ist, das gehört eigentlich dazu, habe ich aber vom freundlichen Paulimot Team bekommen. Sehr hervorzuheben ist das sehr freundliche Support Team das bei jeglichen Fragen einem zur Seite steht. Insgesamt würde ich die Maschine bis zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt sofort wieder kaufen. 4 Sterne nur deshalb, für das in meinen Augen miese lapprige Untergestell und kleinere Lackabplatzungen.

PM4000

Dealing with the options for purchase they were very good. Service after purchase was excellent. The only problem was the delivery company let them down. Tracking of the purchase was non existent for the first week of the delivery. I repeatedly asked for a telephone number to contact the delivery company, this was never given. Eventually a driver called to ask for directions. When he got to our village he was unsure he could reach our house due to the size of his vehicle. The driver was first class and after walking the last bit to make sure he could fit, he was able to drop the lathe off right in the doorway of my workshop. So all ended very well. The new lathe is now installed and the power connected. I have to power the lathe with a VFD. This is relatively easy to do if you are a competent electrician with a good working knowledge of 3 phase motors and machine control wiring. First impressions are that this is a very good machine for the home workshop. Many of the points in older reviews have been address making this a very nice machine. The only item that has been a small problem is the tail stock tool ejector is too long for the drill chuck/arbor they sell. The tang on the MK3 taper has to be removed and the taper shortened to get the maximum drilling depth. This is not a problem as the tang on a Morse taper is there for removing the arbor with a tapered drift in a pillar drill. I will be using Paulimot again. They have excellent staff, the product is good and at the right price.

Pm4000

Ich bin nach 2 Jahren und Haufen auf der Maschine selbst gefertigter Ersatzteile (wofür ich sie gekauft habe) noch immer sehr zufrieden. Das einzige was ich bereue ist, nicht gleich die Pm5000 gekauft zu haben. Wegen der Kühlung.

Die Kabel des Motors wurden in der Abdeckung eingeklemmt und dadurch aufgerissen. Der dann un isolierte Kabel ist dann an den Gehäuse des Motors gekommen dadurch ist dann der FI geflogen 😬 Habe zum Glück den Kabel noch neu isolieren könnten. Aber der Rest passt eine sehr gute Maschine. Nur die Maschinen sollten vor der Lieferung getestet werden

tom

279 / 5 000 Výsledky prekladov Ich bin mit der Drehmaschine zufrieden. Die Drehmaschine steht instabil auf den Sockeln. Sie ist schief und die Drehmaschine kippt auf ebenem Boden von vorne nach hinten. Es ist notwendig, neue Halterungen unter ihnen mit Justierschrauben Teilung 48-50 cm anzufertigen und in die Löcher in den Sockeln zu schrauben, auszurichten und stabil zu stehen.

Für Zuhause reicht es.

Erstmal vorweg: Es ist eine Drehmaschine und das tut sie auch. Es ist kein Profigerät aber Preis / Leistung ist in Ordnung. Deswegen die 4 Sterne Bewertung. Vergleichbare Qualität mit Deutschen Herstellern kann man nicht erwarten. Weil diese Maschinen nur ca. 1/5 des Geldes kosten wie die Maschinen aus Deutschland. Trotzdem tut die Maschine das was sie soll. Wenn man Drehen kann gelingt einem alles auf der Maschine. Die Folgenden Punkte sollen euch helfen, eine Entscheidung beim Kauf zu treffen und evtl. die Maschinen zu verbessern. So eine Maschine hat viele Funktionen, alle nicht aufgeführten Bauteile/Funktionen sind einwandfrei und funktionieren super. Hier ein paar Mängel die mir aufgefallen sind: - So ziemlich alle Griffe jeglicher Wahlschalter waren lose. - 2 Schrauben am Maschinenbett waren lose. (unter dem Drehfutter) - Der Reitstock war nicht auf die Drehmitte des Futters eingestellt. Der Reitstock weist auf 200mm länge gemessen eine Schrägstellung in Z Richtung von 0,17mm auf. Das lässt sich leider nicht korrigieren. Die Höhe des Reitstocks ist 0,35mm über der Drehmitte. Der Pinolenhub vom Reitstock vermindert sich um ca. 30mm wenn man ein Bohrfutter eingesetzt hat. (30mm vor Null fällt das Bohrfutter aus dem Reitstock) - Werkzeuge (Drehmeißel) die man in den 4 Fach Werkzeughalter einspannt kann man nur mit Unterlegblechen auf die richtige Schneidenhöhe einstellen. Die Innenecken an dem Werkzeughalter sind schlecht gefertigt. Dadurch kann der Drehmeißel leider nicht an die Kante geschoben werden um ihn Parallel auszurichten. - Der Hebel zum einschalten der Drehrichtung liegt bei Betrieb gegen den Uhrzeigersinn auf der Spänewanne auf. Hier stößt man sich ab und an mal den Finger. - Die Unterschränke und die Bleche (Rückwand und das Blech zwischen den Schränken unten) sind sehr billig gefertigt. Leider ist kaum eine Kante entgratet. ACHTUNG Verletzungsgefahr!!!! Die Bohrungen passen auch nur mit viel drücken. - Die Bohrungen im Unterschrank mussten nachgeschnitten werden. Entgratet wurde hier leider auch nicht.
