Thread: Lathe gears
16/08/2021 23:50:21

My lathe is a Mx-210, 8x16inch variable speed, 750W , metal lathe, purchased on line from Z.Zelus it's called a VEVOR

I only require the gear sizes for TURNING, the spindtle gear is a 56 tooth gear, I am looking for the slowest possible leadscrew to obtain the best turning finish work . There is a threading chart on the front of the lathe and one in the manual ,but none for the TURNING gears. None of the gears are marked with sizes, I have to compare them with my old gears from my old lathe, they are marked, beats counting the teeth . Like Dave says I've been experimenting and the best results so far are, A.72 B .40 C.80 D. 30 E.84 F. Leadscrew plain Bush spacer

Thanks again, David, (nickname Buddy).

Hi all,

New member seeks advice, I have a Mx-210 8x16inch 750watt variable speed lathe and changed the gears to do some threading and like an idiot forgot to note the turning gear sizes. the spindle gear on the headstock is a 56 tooth gear .

Any information on the turning gear sizes would be appreciated,

Thanks in advance.

Buddy.
