Powerful 1 HP Max, 1,725 RPM motorLarge 12-1/2" swing capacity provides the largest capacity in its class.Best-in-class speed range from 250-4,000 RPM giving the slowest low end speed in its class for large turning and fast high end speed for small turningsForward and Reversing function allows the turner to achieve a superior finish. Sanding a turned piece with the grain causes the wood fibers to lay down and remain rough. Sanding a turned piece against the grain will cut the wood fibers smooth. Rotating the turned piece in both directions is the way to achieve this super smooth finish. With our competitors the turner would need to remount the workpiece backward to achieve this dual rotation. This is time consuming and often impossible. With the Delta 46-460 it is a simple flip of the switchPatented belt tensioning system for easy and quick speed changes and sets the belt at the correct tension every time for maximum power transfer and longer tool lifeIndexing pin to lock the head stock spindle in 24 different locations for fluting and other decorative applicationsAll cast-iron construction provides stability and is extremely durableIncludes 3" face plate, 6" tool rest and 10" tool rest. Turning long spindles require either a longer tool rest or the user to continually move the short tool rest. Turning short work requires a short spindle; the long spindle will not allow the turner to get close enough to the pieceOver headstock On/Off switch provides easy in use access.With a maximum distance between centers of 42" (with bed extension), the MIDI LATHE turns objects as long as a chair leg or as short as a thimbleBall-bearing live centerHeavy-duty, steel knockout barExtension Bed (Model 46-463) is a 25-1/2" long cast-iron bed that increases the overall bed length of the 46-460 to 42"Electronic Variable Speed with three pulley speed ranges provide the required speeds needed to turn a project without changing belt position.6 Groove belt provides superior power to turn large objects.Large up front belt access allows the user to easily change speeds.On board storage for easy access to adjustment tools.6" and 10" Tool Rests provides tool support in a variety of turning applications.
Delta's 46-460 (20") benchtop lathe is a woodworker's dream with a powerful 1 HP, 1,725 RPM motor and the largest swing capacity in its class at 12-1/2". This lathe additionally boasts a best-in-class speed range from 250 - 4,000 RPM providing slow low speeds for immaculate large turning and fast high speeds for small turning. With forward and reversing functions (dictated by the simple flip of a switch), you and your lathe may achieve the most supreme and precise finishes. Because each forward and reverse function rouses a different reaction in the grains of your wood, there will always be a diverse and unique beauty in your turned pieces; additionally, combining the two forward and reversing methods (by rotating the piece in both directions) will return impossibly smooth finishes. Also built with an all cast-iron construction, the lathe is remarkably stable and durable, and with 6" and 10" tool rests, you'll have consistent tool support in a variety of turning applications. An electronic variable speed system with three pulley speed ranges ensures the proper speeds to compliment each application without ever changing your belt position, however, the lathe does offer large up-front belt access should you need to do some manual fine-tuning. The machine's 6 groove belt ensures superior power to turn large objects, and a patented belt tensioning system ensures fast and easy speed changes setting the belt at the correct tension for the most efficient power transmission. Additionally, with on-board storage, your adjustment tools, accessories, and hand-tools are always easily at hand. The lathe's indexing pin locks the headstock spindle in 24 different positions for fluting and other decorative applications rendering this lathe a brilliant machine that will deliver you a new level of love for wood-turning.
