FAQs – Special Purpose Lathe Machines
yellow design
What makes a big bore lathe different from a conventional lathe?

A big bore lathe has a larger spindle bore that allows machining of pipes and thick cylindrical components that cannot fit in standard lathes.

How do I decide between a big bore lathe and an oil country lathe?

Choose a big bore lathe for general heavy jobs. Choose an Oil Country Lathe if you need threading and machining for oilfield pipes, tool joints, or drilling components.

How much does a special purpose lathe machine cost?

Price depends on bed length, spindle bore, and motor power. Entry models start around ₹5 lakh. Oil Country and Big Bore models range from ₹12 lakh to ₹35+ lakh.

Can I customize spindle bore and bed length?

Yes. We build machines tailored to your job size, including special spindles or extra-long beds.

Do you offer installation and operator training?

Yes. Our engineers provide installation, alignment, and training at your site.

Are these machines suitable for continuous heavy cuts?

Yes. All models are built with heavy cast iron beds, high torque spindles, and rigid support for continuous industrial use.

Do you export oil country lathes?

Yes. We export to UAE, Saudi Arabia, Africa, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and other markets.
