16007 Herald Heavy Duty Cast Iron Electronic Variable Speed Lathe
Woodturning
This lathe from Record Power represents the culmination of many decades of expertise in the manufacture and supply of superior woodturning lathes. Developed with the help of professional woodturners and keen hobbyists, we believe we have produced a world-class machine for woodturners of all levels. Thanks to a number of innovative design solutions the capabilities, features and performance of the Herald far exceed anything a machine of this size has been capable of before - It brings top-end professional performance at a fraction of the size and cost of comparable heavy-duty machines.
To reflect the Record Power heritage in a modern context, the look of the lathe incorporates the elegant and balanced curves of the earlier Coronet series in a more streamlined and efficient form. As well as looking great, the Herald feels great - the excellence of engineering, ergonomics and quality manufacturing can be felt throughout, making the lathe a pleasure to use whilst delivering rock solid performance.
State-of-the-Art Motor and Full Electronic Variable Speed
The 750 W motor features the latest in motor technology to give huge amounts of torque, comparable to lathes over twice the size and motor rating. Instantaneous speed change is achieved using the easily accessible control panel. Reversing is also offered for sanding or left handed turning (Must be used only with suitable locking systems for chucks and accessories).
Rotating and Repositionable Headstock
Cam Lock
The tool rest holder is locked in place instantly with the easy to use cam locking system.
Heavy Duty Tool Rest Stem
The 1" diameter tool rest stem helps minimise vibration, giving a smoother and easier cut.
3 Step Pulley
A 3 step pulley is provided for maximum versatility. For most turning the middle pulley is perfect and provides good torque but if you need maximum torque comparable to much larger lathes for heavy cuts or low speed work, then the bottom pulley has immense torque capability. For very small work, polishing or burnishing acrylics, the top pulley gives access to very high speeds.
Hand Wheel
The headstock features a substantial hand wheel to turn the spindle, making fitment of headstock accessories much easier.
Heavy Duty Spindle Lock and Indexing
Holds the spindle securely and offers a full 24 point indexing function.
Innovative Tailstock Design
The tailstock has been designed to allow easier access to the cam lock handle at the rear. It is also profiled and open on one side for comfortable grip when sliding along the bed. It has been recently upgraded to feature the self-ejecting function, meaning that accessories can be removed from the tailstock by simply turning the hand wheel until they are ejected. The lead screw now stays inside the tailstock body, reducing exposure to dust and the hand wheel has been made larger and heavier, giving easier operation.
The Ideal Bench-Top Lathe
With the optional bench feet fitted, the Coronet Herald is the perfect bench-top lathe, being compact yet still capable of handling large workpieces.
Floor-Standing Configuration
The optional leg stand allows the Herald to function as a compact yet powerful floor-standing lathe.
