14" x 40" Industrial Metal Lathe with DRO – Variable Speed Precision Lathe (Model 1440GV) Product Description

The MechMaxx 1440GV Industrial Metal Lathe is a powerful precision machining system designed for professional workshops, gunsmiths, fabrication shops, and industrial machining environments. With a large 14" swing over bed and 40" distance between centers, this heavy-duty lathe is capable of handling long shafts, large stock, and precision turning operations with excellent stability and control.

Equipped with a 3 HP copper-core AC motor and Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), the 1440GV provides infinitely adjustable spindle speeds ranging from 40–1800 RPM. This allows machinists to precisely match spindle speed to different materials and cutting conditions, improving finish quality and machining efficiency.

The lathe features a large 2" spindle bore that allows longer material to pass through the headstock, making it especially well suited for gunsmithing work and machining larger diameter stock. A built-in 2-axis digital readout (DRO) provides accurate real-time positioning on the carriage and cross slide, improving precision and repeatability for professional machining tasks.


Built for Precision Machining

The 1440GV is designed to provide exceptional control, flexibility, and precision for demanding turning applications.

• Infinitely variable spindle speeds from 40–1800 RPM
• Large 2" spindle bore for long or large stock material
• 2-axis DRO system for accurate positioning
• D1-5 camlock spindle mount for secure workholding
• Supports both inch and metric thread cutting
• Automatic longitudinal and cross feed for consistent cuts

These features allow machinists to perform turning, threading, drilling, and facing operations with professional-level accuracy.


Durable Industrial Construction

The 1440GV is built with a heavy-duty cast iron base designed to minimize vibration during heavy machining operations. Its rigid frame and precision components ensure reliable performance in demanding workshop environments.

• Heavy cast iron machine base for stability
• Integrated storage drawers for tooling and accessories
• Foot brake for fast and safe machine stopping
• Built-in coolant system for extended machining
• LED work light and splash guard for improved visibility and protection

This robust construction ensures long-term reliability for both industrial machining and professional gunsmithing applications.
