Machine Characteristics
The SL450 features a high-quality, heavy cast iron bed. The bed is heat-treated and annealed to provide a strong foundation for the SL series of lathes. The single-piece 35-degree slant bed design is extremely rigid – able to withstand heavy cutting forces. The SL450 will consistently produce high-precision parts for the long term.
