Intended use
The PM3900 is a metal lathe for use in the high-end hobby and semi-professional sector. Thanks to its versatile range of applications, this lathe is used in functional modelling, one-off and small series production or prototype construction. The hobby lathe is designed for machining steel, cast iron, all non-ferrous metals, aluminium, brass, etc., but can also be used for machining plastics or similar materials that are not hazardous to health or generate dust.

Description of the
The PM3900 is a 400-volt metal lathe with a gearbox running in an oil bath. This allows twelve different spindle speeds from 55 to 1,820, which can be switched with a lever. The machine has a centre width of 815 mm and a very solid machine bed. The large centre width, the 160 mm lathe chuck with camlock holder and the 305 mm orbital diameter above the machine bed allow even larger workpieces to be machined. The lathe has 15 longitudinal and 15 face feeds, 21 metric and 13 imperial thread pitches, which can be set via the oil bath feed gearbox. A lever can be used to change the direction of rotation of the combined lead and feed spindle independently of the direction of rotation of the lathe chuck. This means that left-hand threads can be produced with this lathe. The emergency stop button, the torque button and the operating light are located above the headstock. The professional control lever for START anti-clockwise, START clockwise and STOP is located on the side of the lock case.

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.

4-axis magnetic tape measuring system
The pre-installed 4-axis magnetic tape 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
Please note: The specified travel distances may be reduced if the measuring strips are fitted.
