I am really impressed with the craftsmanship of this machine. Not only functional, but a piece of art in it's design as well.

Thank you for taking the time to show all that theese machines are capable of! It is really something to see how smooth it runs as well.

Marketed as a very special model, the tiny and rare KD50 had a centre height of just 50 mm - making it the smallest of the Lorch precision bench lathes. Available in just one bed length of 400 mm, with a between centres capacity of 185 mm, the spindle had a bore of 8 mm and carried collets with a maximum through bore of 5 mm and a non-through of 7 mm. The bed of the lathe was formed into a large box-like casting behind the headstock on the back of which was built a very substantial countershaft unit. Fortunately the designer resisted the temptation to make the drive line too compact and spaced the motor a reasonable distance away from the headstock, the result being a smooth drive that worked effectively without excessive belt tension. With a 1400 rpm motor on a separate swing bracket at the back, spindle speeds of: 324, 490, 725, 1040, 1560, 2320 rpm were available. As an option a 2800 rpm motor could be fitted, doubling the speeds, whilst a few examples have been found with 2-speed motors giving twelve speeds in a much more effective range. Today, if the lathe still has its 3-phase motor, a variable-speed phase inverter would be the ideal solution and allow an owner to get the very best from the system. Nearly always found as a toolmaker's model with collets retained in the headstock by a draw bar, a screw-feed compound slide rest, screw-feed tailstock and a hand T-rest, the KD50 could also be supplied - despite its miniature proportions - for production use with lever operation of the collet closer, cross and top slide and tailstock..

@tiredfingers9912 жыл бұрын
The biggest mystery I have is which manufacture to buy from, and which tools to buy first, as a lot of us have limited finances available for our hobby. Though another theory I have is to just buy the biggest lathe and mill I can afford, and then make all my own tools from that lathe and mill. I wonder what others think? Thanks for the video.

Very nice lathe. If you can't find or afford one of these and you make mostly small scale parts, then I would recommend a Sherline. They are very nice lathes for the money and can be purchased as manual machines or CNC. If you buy the manual version, they are very easily converted to CNC later if you like.
@spahlow12 жыл бұрын
Heavy lathes prefer accuracy. I agree. But it isn‘t the issue / topic here. Would you use a heavy lathe like you suggest, if you work as watchmaker? A fixed gear is not a good advice. Consider how often do you use such a gear. Important is only the possibility changing the speeds of revolutions, the pulleys secure that. This kind of lathes were produced and delivered for / to watchmakers and precision engineers till ca. year 2000. The owners are happy to have one. Thanks Steffen Pahlow

beautiful little lathe, did the video contain all of the attachments offered? This is the first lathe that I have seen with a floating headstock, cutting threads without a half nut, the pulley system to power the saw head, a built in index plate system. This is a great example of Swiss ingenuity and accuracy. Index Lathes, Sip Jig Bores and now the Starrag Heckert machining centers with the rotary table doubling as a VTL. Not to forget the Dixi machining centers. All excellent machinery.

Yes I own these and worked using these lathes, but consider their bed isn't massiv, yields to the pressure during working. If you want making watches avoid these kind of lathes, mind the bed, when purchasing a lathe. If you like to compare please open my website, there you find eveny kind of watchmaker lathes.

I believe Lorch, Schmidt & Co. are no longer in business, although their lathes from the first half of the XXth Century are still in high demand, and for good reason. Try searching on the internet for "watchmaker's lathe" or "horological lathe"; you might get lucky and find an old Lorch for sale. They are very well-built, and have undergone only minor design changes from th 1910s to the 1950s. But they are very expensive: easily as much as a full-size machinist's lathe with accessories.
